Fall color |
| Description: |
Not only are the trees in color, the consists on trains riding the former B&O are looking colorful as well. This 137 car westbound is crossing the Potomac after passing through the Harpers Ferry Tunnel. The gent in the river seems more intent on the fish than the train. |

They come in all colors |
| Description: |
There was a wide range of paint schemes on CSX in the early days, as Chessie and Seaboard had not painted all of their component roads in their schemes as of the merger date. It resulted in power sets like this one at the Huntington shop. Oddly, the one CSX painted unit in this group is the one that will be off the roster soonest. |

Stealth leader |
| Description: |
A CSX painted unit leads the power on SLN 3, seen on the Buffalo Runner as it begins to roll onto the Tier. The second unit is the interesting one, still in SCL colors, though renumbered. I saw a wide variety of predecessor paint schemes here, but dont think I eve saw a Clinchfiled unit. Look to the right of the signal, you'll see the only NYSW car painted yellow, hopper 600. |
