Engine engine number 9
Title:  Engine engine number 9
Description:  CSX is unusual among class 1 roads, in that it starts its locomotive numbering with 1. This is the lowest numbered unit I have seen, #9, leading 109 cars of K 277 at South Plainfield as it heads for, among other places, a landfill in the south, as much of the consist is trash containers.

Title:  Rolling in for a crew change
Description:  This northbound was catching one of the few peeks of sun as it rolled in from Waycross for a crew change and a meet with Q 260. It would get a new crew, but still be waiting to get out when I left around 1930 after meeting Q 143.

Work train
Title:  Work train
Description:  This work train had six units and really worked up the grade at Firstview. The plains are not pool table flat as much as people think, and this line has its share of grades, as evidenced by the exhaust.
