An East bound Coal train on the James River Viaduct at Richmond , VA heading towards Newport News from where it will be shipped for exports. On the left side can be seen the famous Jefferson Hotel where the movie 'Gone with the Wind' was shot. The two Units in YN2 Paint scheme were still fairly common.
I'm on a mission, perhaps not attainable, to shoot all of the SD70s before they are rebuilt into those wide cab abominations. I'm not sure I'll get it done but we'll see.
Here's one of those spartan cab 70s, of the ex-Conrail variety, pulling mixer 10G into Enola Yard with a cut of Camrail exports fresh out of the GE plant in Erie.
Both of these, the standard cab and the Erie exports are on borrowed time. A two for one!
During 2015 I was able to visit GE's Erie facility twice for tours and while photography was very limited I was able to take photos of the deadlines, and the yard were allowed. Here two export D9-40BBW's for CLN sit next to the GECX deadline waiting to be shoved out to the NS interchange. The ex-BN 5498 has long since been scrapped.
Under a crazy sky, exports bound for Egypt make their way east under the old N&W coaling tower in Vicker, VA behind an ES44AC.

This is a still exported from my board mounted GoPro fisheye. I like getting the video footage, but its fun to have some moments frozen in time.
Surfing in the desert up north on a recent trip. I'm out of the water for at least 6 weeks from a skateboard fall, so these shots will have to tie me over til then.

A loaded taconite train is tied on the Keenan Sub. and will eventually head south on the CN system for Louisiana and forwarding on as export cargo. The rear unit is seen here across a snow-covered field northwest of Northgate near the Keenan Yard
Turning the clock back half a century and more when diminutive saddle tanks busied themselves around the dockside at Workington, on 31st March 2001, 1885-built Robert Heath 0-4-0 saddle tank 'No.6' moves a consignment of rail brought by the private railway from Corus' works to the dockside, to be loaded and shipped to Waterford in the Republic of Ireland. The locomotive and crew were on loan for a photographic charter, the rail transfer between steelworks and port normally undertaken by a diesel loco.

A heavy loaded export ore train (CN U724) dips at the Amnicon River at Rockmont on the CN Superior Subdivision mainline. The train is starting to grind up the grade that crests at Hines. Good thing CN double-tracked the mainline here - it certainly makes a big difference with getting trains out of the Lake Superior Basin. For reference, the original mainline is on the left while the newer is to the right with a slight jog.
While the Export Coal train runs no more I pulled this shot from the archives from a couple of summers ago. The three MAC are the DP units on this southbound coal train with three more up front. While it certainly doesn't look like all this horsepower is necessary it will be before long as to get to Seward the railroad must climb Grandview & Divide Hills both with grades around 3%. That is pretty steep even for a short 70 car coal train.
