The Story: CSX Train Q403 is west through Pennypack Park on the Trenton Line at the 13 Signals. Was hoping for and lucky to get a nice snow scene in the park.
With a long train of Wisconsin Electric Power hoppers, one Chicago & North Western and two CSX EMD’s roll through the hilly farmland at Buzz, Pennsylvania. The two CSX/one CNW power combination was one that was on every WEPX train that I witnessed on the Monongahela, most likely approximating the ratio of mileage division between the two roads. It was not unusual for the MGA to add a fourth unit at West Brownsville.
After spending the previous day filming the Norfolk Southern Railroad, today I managed to see a Norfolk Southern engine leading a train for CSX! Here we have a Norfolk Southern ES-40DC leading a CSX ES44AH engine, as they pull a Southbound ethanol tanker car train through downtown Cartersville, GA on the old CSX Western & Atlantic (W&A) Subdivision.
As a patch of dark clouds overtake the morning sun, an empty CSX Grain Train powers through the S curve passing the Lakepoint development at Emerson, GA heading Northbound on the famed Western & Atlantic (W&A) Subdivision. This was the first time I ever saw a grain train with a couple of freight cars in the mix.
At Robert St Bridge. with all CSX hoppers and a very long train. (OXLRU 5,655 ft)
Had a typical Railfan moment of frustration when this train was lined there was perfect sun but the Robert St Bridge tender said it was change of shift so could they "stand by" which turned into twenty minutes and, of course, the clouds rolled in.
An RJ Corman coal train from Pax waits to come off the Loup Creek branch as a CSX coal load passes on the main.

CSX K043-18 head's back to the Bakken Fields with a BNSF ES44C4 and Ferromex ES44AC at Shenandoah Junction WV on February-20th-2015.
A pair of BNSF ES44C4 engines power a train load of phosphate covered hopper cars Southbound along the side track of the CSX W&A Subdivision at Emerson, GA on 2/4/2015. The train would stop here and wait for over 6 hours before continuing its run South. BTW this location is now covered with restaurants and a family fun park that's part of the Lakepoint Development.
You can also see video of this train that I filmed a few miles South of this location here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mww9B_Foefs
A BNSF grain train consisting of mostly CSX hoppers circles around the Ray-Carroll Wholesale Fertilizer facility in Hardin on a sunny June afternoon. An old ratty hopper still bearing the name of the Family Lines System is one of many in this consist.

CSX 6147 still in Chessie Cat paint leads CSX train R138 at the signals at College Station in Beaver Falls, PA on October 23, 1992. Those Chessie colors sure looked nice among the fall foliage.
CSX runs a couple of locals around Cleveland that I have largely ignored for too long. With a little surprise sunshine on 1/24, I went out looking for them. I had better luck with L316 seen here. This is a turn from CSX's Collinwood yard on the east side of Cleveland to NS's Rockport yard on the west side. They work at Parma and Marcy along the way. In this view from the I480 freeway ramp, they have just left Rockport and crossed the former B&O line down to the Clark yard and are proceeding to their work at Marcy. The 2221 is a road slug paired with the ex C&O GP40-2 6401. The 6446 is an ex B&O GP40-2. They had about 40 cars leaving Rockport.
CSX GP30m's 4217, 4251, and a Chessie GP38 head West with a coke train at CP29 in Beaver Falls, PA on September 15, 1992. The train had waited for a few meets with some Eastbounds, which I photographed, giving me some more 30 Thursday material for the future.
CSX Y194 crossing one of few remaining rail bridges to reach Zug island. Seen here shoving their small cut of tank cars back into the yard. This shot is pretty cool because you can see the new Gordie Howe International bridge piers being constructed. This will be the gateway from Detroit to Windsor and replacing the crumbling Ambassador Bridge.

The Story: CSX train K160 has had a nice addition the the head end, in the form of an ex Louisville & Nashville SD40. Seen passing by SEPTA's Woodbourne Station.
CSX 8818 leads 9 more units on Q-353 at CP SINNS in Liberty Boro, PA on a gloomy April 14, 2006. Not a wide cab in sight, and the only GE is a C30-7. Q-353 and Q-352 often were the trains used to shuttle local power around and often had large engine consists.
January 19, 2015: An EMD Road Slug w/ GP40-2 pull a string of gondolas around the wye track at Junta Yard in Cartersville, GA. The gondolas had been carrying new crossties over to North Yard on the CSX Etowah Subdivision.
CSX train B793 heads down the Somerset after completing its work at Van De Mark Chemical in Lockport.
CSX GP30m hangs out at the New Castle Yard in Mahoningtown, PA with a coke train on January 7, 1994. Also making appearances are what were two of the ugliest units on CSX at the time. CSX 6540 was one of the worst looking Chessie painted units on the system, and the 3005 is just plain ugly.
