Title:  CSX 4706 and 301
Description:  Coal train U836-05 is going east on Track 1, pulling hard and trying to get a grip on the slippery wet rails. It just got going again a few miles away in Broadford after a crew change. The middle track is missing snow because a train was sitting there all night which blocked the snowfall. Here you can see what is left of a stub track which is in the process of being removed. Another bit of B&O history gone. The track used to run down to West Yough.

CSX 4736 (1)
Title:  CSX 4736 (1)
Description:  SD70MAC idling on coal train V634-06 which would leave much later in the day. The old B&O pole line still remains but their days may be numbered. This is looking like it is going to be the year that CSX finally does away with any remaining relics of the B&O era. The only thing keeping these wires here right now is that they lead to some CPL signals at Bluestone and Casparis. When those go, the wires will be completely obsolete. And yes, the poles really are this crooked.

Description:  Q253-29 going west through Broadford, just about to cross over from Track 2 to Track 1. The story has it that some of the SD70MACs have gone in to storage in various CSX yards, but I still see the same amount of them that I always do yet.
