Once a dime a dozen, now yard service
Title:  Once a dime a dozen, now yard service
Description:  A set of three SD40-2's, all#green, head back into the yard after pumping air on an all-rail train. Sadly, this#is about the only mainline running they are doing anymore, as they cross over into the 603 switch. There is no question that these are yard engines, the missing plow tells the story all too well.

Dash Dueces and Company
Title:  Dash Dueces and Company
Description:  Although a piece of fence is included in this image, the sound and circumstance was too much to ignore. In the land of widecabs, even GEVO's to say it simpler, when you have none present, its exactly that, a gift. After this night, I saw both of these units leave town on trains, the 7922 left on the TACBLU, and the 7146 had the NTWKCK.

K444-13
Title:  K444-13
Description:  After a rather slow day, I was thrilled to hear the RA pipe up and call the HLCX 7177. After Amtrak goes East, okay to pull up to Clarke Jct. and head on the NS. At the time I figured this might be the last time I would shoot a blue Helm on CSX, and so far that has remained true. Don't think it will be changing, either...

O RLY???
Title:  O RLY???
Description:  Yes, really. I liked what I saw when the slug set rolled past and I could see just the air hose between the mother and the 8409. They dropped these four off here and went back to the yard. About 30 minutes later these four went back into the yard to get on their train. Cha Ching!
