Getting CSX power on trains was a bit rare so getting one leading was great. The real kick was seeing the helper set working this train in the other post.

A southbound mixed freight passes the shell of the tower at Leipsic, Ohio in June 1988. As the second unit shows, it was CSX by then but the lead GP40 still wears Chessie System paint with C&O lettering. In the spring and early summer of 1988, I spent a lot of time in Lima, Ohio backfilling a spot on a modernization project at the refinery. When I could get out of the plant in daylight, I would typically cruise up and down Rt 65 looking for DT&I trains on the this trackage that they shared but usually found CSX southbounds. They usually had a fleet of southbounds in the afternoon. Leipsic was a crossing of the former B&O between Toledo and Cincinnati and the former NKP mainline.
Southbound CSX OCS Train P905 powers its way down the CSX W&A Subdivision at Martin Marietta bound for Atlanta on 11/11/2015.
Herzog and CSX crews coordinate dropping off a cut of Herzog hoppers from their train at the WSS of Mitchell, IN on the evening of July 25, 2020. Once the shuffle was completed, the CSX crew will head west on the former B&O as far as their hours of service will let them to Milepost 147ish.

CSX's former MARC GP40WH-2 9969 shoves the geometry trainset through Blue Island Junction, so they can gain access to Track 9 and head up toward the former Rock Island.

CSX train D795 climbs Jacks Mountain near Fairfield, Pa. on it's way to Hagerstown, Md. The train is operating on the former Western Maryland Railway's Dutch line and will reach the summit at Highfield, Md. in a few miles. The train is led by GP40-2 6425 a rare leader for this train that usually gets two wide noise GEs. Taken on 05-2-2020.
3 CSX SD's lead a Rochester-bound coal train past UN tower at the east end of New Castle on a frosty early morning in December 1986. UN tower was so named because it was near the underpass of UnioN road. UN controlled movements in and out of the east end of the yard in New Castle as well as the connection between the B&O's Pittsburgh & Western and Pittsburgh & Lake Erie. It was remoted in November 1995 but was saved by the Beaver Valley Junction chapter of the NRHS who moved it to a nearby park in Mahoningtown. It was cut in half and top and bottom halves were moved by rail. This coal train would take the P&W out of New Castle down to Edineau where it would switch off onto the former BR&P that is now operated by the Buffalo & PIttsburgh.
Q501 accelerates east after waiting for a pair of CN trains at the Wellsboro diamonds. The train on this day was powered by an SD70ACe-ES40DC-AC6000CW trio. Only the Gevo is still rostered by CSX today.

CSX 8908 and eight sisters at Cincinnati, Ohio on July 6, 2019. The units are awaiting a CSX yard job to pick them up from Norfolk Southerns Gest Street Yard.
Here is the view looking the other direction off the Koppel Bridge from my previous post. I don't know the full history of this branch, but it once gave the P&LE access to Ellwood City as well as Koppel. The bridge that took the branch to Ellwood City is just visible through the trees in the upper center of the photo. I did hike down from the bridge to JA after getting pics of 1945, and did get a CSX train passing the yard at JA. Maybe I'll post it later today. Koppel, PA on December 29, 1992.
CSX 6110 still in Chessie colors leads R-136 out of New Castle Jct. in Mahoningtown, PA after a crew change on February 27, 1993. This view shows the yard and sidings on the right, as well as the ex P&LE main on the far left.

CSX SD40-2's #8367 & #8199 bring a CWR train southbound through rural north Georgia at Crandall on CSX's K&A Etowah Subdivision.

The CL&W built along Big Creek, a tributary of the Cuyahoga River to get down the hill into Cleveland's industrial valley. Here is the daily L317 local led by a mother/slug set drifting down the hill with cars for customers in the valley. This section is between the Metropark's Brookside Reservation and Interstate 71.
CSX 4555 slips through the signals at EM Cabin with black diamonds for Brice. Though past-peak, good color still clung to the trees, painting the Appalachian mountainsides of pallette of reds and oranges.
