CSX Q300-14 grinds eastbound through Woodbourne with the typical large mixed freight led by a pair of ES44AHs. June 15, 2017.
A southbound CSX freight train hauling one newsprint boxcar and two empty hoppers passes the former New Pinellas Hotel (at right) in Largo Center on October 25, 2010. What's also interesting here is that what appears to be lead locomotive 2383 is actually an unpowered road slug that can only be used in tandem with a powered engine, in this case 6983 (GP40-2). Research suggests that train crews like to ride in road slugs because they are less noisy than powered locomotives, but I have spoken to some crew members who don't share that opinion.

Shortly after shooting this four-unit set of CSX power on a double-length 160-car 633 ethanol train near Kirkland, IL, on the IC&E, I sent an e-mail alert via IlliniRail and IceRail...only to have Yahoo go into convulsions and send my message over and over dozens of times.
After I tried everything I could to get it to stop, I chatted with a Yahoo representative who advised they were having a system problem with numerous accounts affected with the same problem.
So sorry for the aggravation if you received lots of e-mail from me today. I was even more frustrated than you!
CSX Q300-18 charges eastbound through Langhorne after leaving their cars for Woodbourne Yard on the siding at Nesh. An ES40DC, two AC GEs and an SD40-2 lead the way. April 19, 2017.
While waiting for the circus train, had this guy, CSX U303-15, to come into town under some menacing looking clouds.

After meeting the E502-02 in Williamsburg, this T224-01 from Fork Creek Mine, WV has 150 CSXT coal loads for Newport News. Repaint CSX AC4400CW 274 and CSX AC4400CW 511 lead this 21,192 ton coal train through Lee Hall, VA on the Peninsula Sub (CA 27). These signals have already been replaced this year.
CSX B779-26 has UP 3032 ST70AH leading headed eastbound through Lyons NY bound for Sewaren NJ 12-28-24.
This "morning," I shot the CSX 3222 leading a sister unit westbound down the UP Topeka Sub on the AGBML 03. The sunlight wasn't exactly ideal for a westbound, but free time and foreign leaders are a tough combination to pass up.

A going away shot of 025 as it passes the Railfan Viewing Park. Constructed in 2020 after being in the planning stages since the 1980s, the Cordele Train Watchers Viewing Platform is made up of a covered observation viewing area, public restrooms which are open from Sunrise to Sunset, charging outlets, a Water Bottle refill Station, a 24 Car Parking Lot, a little walkway running adjacent to the CSX Track, Historical Markers detailing the History of Cordele and the Railroads that have served it along with plenty of sitting areas around the park. Virtual Railfan even has a few webcams set up here, allowing people from across the Globe to view the heavy action this Town sees on a daily basis. Video of this catch and more: youtu.be/I6hGtujKGr8

CSX train led by GP39-2 locomotive 4302 and GP38-2 locomotive 2617 has entered the Drew Spur from the Tampa yards on October 3, 2011, and is preparing to switch 9 freight cars to the Home Depot distribution center along the team track at the left. Then the train will head further down the Spur with 54 autorack cars and 8 mixed freight cars. With 71 cars, the train still seemed to be curved around the wye in the distance to the north.
