CSX 8404 (conductor's side) |
Description: |
This second engine on train Q216-26 is the first CSX SD40-2 to get the new CSX "railcar" logo. Built as a C&O 7553 SD40 in August 1966. It had the old YN1 paint right up until fall 2012. I was told that even though this engine looks good, it was not running right and it had to be swapped out once the train got into the yard. |

Empty ethanol train K631-31 is being held at Broadford on Track 1 to wait for an eastbound Q276 train to pass and cross over from Track 1 to Track 2. It was very fortunate for me that the train had to stop here or I would have been too late to photograph it. |
