It seems (post Brexit) aka national suicide we need to persuade companies to export. Our local M.P. (Dr Liam Fox) was inside this vechicle trying to persuade companies to export. Ironic n'est pas.

ET42-036 with a freight train with coal for export is passing the remotely controlled Gdańsk Motława Most junction post. Track no. 2 was then the only active track between this post and Pruszcz Gdański station. January 23, 2005.
More coal then went to ports and out to sea than the other way round, opposite to today.

ET42-036 z pociągiem towarowym z węglem wjeżdża na zdalnie sterowany posterunek odgałęźny Gdańsk Motława Most. Tor 2 był wtedy jedynym czynnym torem między tym posterunkiem a Pruszczem Gdańskim. 23 stycznia 2005 roku.
Wówczas więcej węgla szło do portów i na morze, niż w przeciwną stronę, jak to można zaobserwować obecnie.

A Pittsburgh & Lake Erie flatcar is landlocked on what's left of the Turtle Creek Industrial RR, which shut down several years ago.
Normally in 2020 one shouldn't complain about any EMD-led train, but this wasn't what I took a day off work to see on the Mississippi Export. Apparently the day before CN ran several unit trains south (including this one), and then after running a geometry train to Mobile didn't have any crews left to run manifest A488. Therefore, the MSE didn't have any cars to take south with their own power.
I mean the way coal is going who knows how long these trains for Mississippi Power's Plant Daniel will still be running, but still not the way I had hoped to get the day started. After grabbing a couple of shots it was time to go look for the KCS.
Turkey was the only export market for the spectra. IETT took a number and these were still running until recently. 94-058 is seen here just after repaint at the massive central works outside Istanbul in 2008.

It may be 11 years since EWS was formally rebranded (at the time as DB Schenker), but the maroon and gold livery still lives on.
EL PO-98 eastbound at Suffern NY with a P&H excavator on a flat, a export loco on a TTX flat, and six axle EMD narrow guage trucks on a Wabash flat. Not sure what model EMD that would have been. Howard Kent Jr. 07-12-1974.
Aurizon Siemens German built 3800 class 3805 heads a train of coal wagons south to Gladstone approaching Mt.Larcom. This locomotive, which will be accompanied by others in the middle and rear of train is still in the year's old QR National Eagle livery, one which personally I hate. Is that black thing over the cab supposed to be a wing...and why?

A further view of a bus in the Southampton docks, but at the opposite end of the age spectrum. This is a Wright-bodied Volvo B9TL destined for Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB) in Hong Kong, pictured heading for the cargo ship which will take it roughly 12,500 miles by sea to its new home.
CSX T233 knocks down the restricting signal at "HRT", the last such signal on the CSX ex C&O Peninsula Sub in Newport News, VA. The coal will be transloaded to barge at Dominion Terminal.
