April 20, 2018: A CSX AC4400CW GE engine, still sporting my favorite YN2 paint scheme, slithers through the S curve at Lakepoint in Emerson, GA on the CSX Western & Atlantic Subdivision. as CSX empty coal train U736 (Goose Creek, SC-Corbin, KY) heads back to the mine. Sadly, an overpass is Now being constructed in the background, thus eliminating the scenic look.

CSX, apart from combining a ton of interesting railroads, eliminated a bunch of cool paint schemes too, and stumbled around for years trying to find an image. For a brief while, long enough for the first batch of C40-8s to be delivered (and maybe some Sd60s) the railroad settled on a mostly grey scheme railfans called the stealth scheme.
And thus on the morning of May 1, 1993 CSX 8040 leads sister 8217 and 5517, a B30-7 still in Chessie colors (talk about wrong leader) under US Route 1 in Halethorpe MD. Coming out of the sun, pre ditchlights, this guy was not particularly visible in the fog. The grainy film, from a slide that I had apparently dropped into a pile of gravel at some point, doesn't help.
Dad and I had taken a trip south to Baltimore to see the E units that MARC was using at the time, along with some rebuilt F units. We had a nice variety of color, but this guy was not part of the colorful part of our trip.
January 30, 2016: CSX manifest-freight train S542 (Waycross, GA to Cincinnati, OH) glides over the Etowah River shortly before sundown on the CSX W&A Subdivision just outside of Cartersville, GA. Note the CSX YN2 AC6000CW GE engine leading the run.

CSX 6615 in Chessie Cat colors leads train Q-383 at CP SINNS in Port Vue, PA on October 12, 1994. We were at my in-laws home packing up all of my wife's stuff because we were leaving PA and moving to NY on October 14. I ran down to the trakcs a couple times and grabbed a few CSX trains as a last hurrah. We did get back frequently to visit, but I don't recall getting many, if any, Chessie Cats leading trains.
CSX 5309 & CSX 7827 leads a Venice IL to Kansas City MO, (The Schneider Train) west out of Illinois over the Mississippi River into Louisiana Missouri and over the KCS/BNSF diamond on a cold extremely windy January afternoon.

A loaded CSX coal train sits tied down on the siding track at Emerson, GA with an AC6000CW on the point. The train was bound for Plant Bowen in Stilesboro, but due to no space being available to hold the train at the plant, it was sent to Emerson to wait until the next day. Taken on 3/23/2017.
As the sun sets on what had been a LONG day of train watching, a loaded Autorack Train powers Southbound over the old CSX Western & Atlantic (W&A) Subdivision at Cartersville, GA with an all EMD power set (SD70M, SD50-2).
See the video I shot of this train here:
