CSX GP30m 4228 still in Chessie colors rests at the New Castle Yard in Mahoningtown, PA on January 17, 1994. Trudy and I liked to go up to New Castle on occasion and do a little night photography. On this night we set her camera up on the tripod and took a few photo's. Usually we would take turns with the tripod and end up with doubles of everything. I can't find an image that would have been taken with my camera, maybe it was too cold and we just took one photo with her camera. I was shooting Kodachrome and she was using Ektachrome at the time.
CSX Local C770 rolls east through the Fox Chase neighborhood in Northeast Philadelphia, during the peak of the dreaded "Bomb Cyclone". Bitter cold, check, 40-50 MPH winds, check, and lastly snow, check. What fool would be out in this taking a train picture?

The CSX Saginaw Yard job crosses the Tittabawassee River after interchanging with the Mid Michigan Railroad at Paines Junction. CSX engine 2645 has certainly seen better days as LN 4139 which is a GP38-2. Photo is from June 3, 1991 as the job heads east back to the yard.

This is a scene that's been missing from the CSX Cartersville Sub a few years now, since the tragic explosion at the grain facility in Rockmart. Fortunately, the reconstruction of the facility is nearing completion, so hopefully grain trains can return to operating on this line again.
CSX 6073 & 2693 lead train Q-383 through the long shadows in Wampum, PA on the evening of September 19, 1994. CSX was doing major track work on the ex P&LE as evidenced by the pile of ties.

Just another pair of CSX GEVO's dashing through the snow with a Westbound intermodal train at CP367 in Rochester, NY on February 13, 2020. At least they were paired together on the front instead of the usual setup of one unit on the front and the other as dpu way back in the train.

CSX 295 leads an intermodal Westbound by the old West Shore abutment at Savage Road in Churchville, NY on October 20, 2019.

Backing along the OJG subdivision, which connects the W&A Main at Bowen Wye to the Cartersville Subdivision at Straton, CSX K617-21 crawls north on a crisp fall morning. Having spent most of the pre-dawn and goodly part of the morning assembling the train, the crew now backs the consist to Bowen before heading north to Chattanooga. The conductor is riding the last car while the engineer is operating from the middle engine because the lead SD50-2 has a very bad radio.

For the most part, CSX's former New York Central and Conrail Big Four line between Berea and Greenwich Ohio is straight as an arrow diagonal across all the east-west quadrant roads in the area. One exception is this curve at Jones Rd on the south side of Wellington. Here we have a lone ES44-AC on the front of Q162-16. Q162 is a North Baltimore to Port Newark NJ mixed freight. Thanks to Sham for the train ID and info; they had a most garbled radio. October 17, 2020
