String of CSX rock hoppers |
Description: |
Seven (count 'em) CSX rock hoppers sit on the industrial spur in front of the Lee Hall Depot. My guess is that some train came thru here in the middle of the night while I was sleeping and picked these up, because when I came back the following morning, all of these were gone. |

Here's a picture demonstrating the industrial track's shininess. Not the shiniest rails, but definitely better than most industrial spur tracks look. |

CSX loaded coal |
Description: |
Our first train in 5 hours and 4 minutes (I know, I need to be committed for waiting that long!) was a loaded coal train with an AC60CW leading and an AC44CW trailing. He was moving around 35 miles per hour I guess. |

The train had some very shiny TILX coal hoppers, which I joked about it looking like it said "Tilex." You can see the locomotives WAY down the track, continuing to the Newport News coal terminals. |

Almost to Elmhurst Street. You can tell that these have been spending time in coal service by how dirty the units are. I'm not going to complain, I loved every minute of seeing these! |
