Quite the counterpart on Q369 |
Description: |
After shooting Q368 with a HELM Deuce leading, I near Gary Airport only to hear Q369 call out as the CSXT 8324. I whipped a U turn and headed right back to State Line for this. L&N SD40 up front, and two other YN3 EMD's trailing. |

CP 490 for the record books |
Description: |
Pulling around the bend at Glenwood is what I'd been waiting for going on five days. Since coming West under darkness on the night of the 12th, this consist was on my radar and I was determined to get a shot of it. Five days later, six different call times later, a new lead unit and an MP15AC for good measure, and its finally about to happen. |

CSXT 8418 |
Description: |
On my last trip to Toledo I shot the 8387 a few hundred feet away from where hte 8418 sits. I thought for sure that would be my last. Luckily enough, I was able to make it back to Ohio much sooner than I expected. And to find another YN1 which I havent shot yet, it was pretty neat. I was hoping it was the 8320, but hey, whose complaining. |

State of the Art |

In my eyes, the SD40-SD45 lines from 1966-1971 were two of the best looking units ever produced. The spacing, overall length, truck design, and simplicity was spot on. And to see an old soldier like this with new paint, A/C, open bearings, and an electric handbrake is just plain awesome. |

After shooting the 8138 yesterday, the CSXPAS brings another one, this time one of my favorites. The rebuilt SD40 frames in the 83 and 84 series are very close to my favorite engines on the CS_. |

This is definately a candidate for YN3. The rust isnt too bad, but the yellow has faded badly. Notice on the front truck some dark blue coming through. |
