CSXT 2429 |
| Description: |
While I've been able to shoot CSX SD40-2's for years on the BNSF at Northtown, these 24XX's never stray off of yard duty, so I was happy to be able to shoot this one heading back East. |

Its been awhile since I've bumped into this one, last time I saw it was in 2008 on 291 heading for storage. And before that, I saw it in the fall of 2005 under its CEFX markings. |

Helpers |
| Description: |
The former CNW is on home turf, one of the few former CNW's even left on the roster. Yet, while that is rare in and of itself, the last two true CNW's also wait patiently for their train to be made up. The 3029 & company will be the helpers for tonights M-SSPPR. |
