Description:  An extremely long Q173 with a GEVO and a CW40-8 roll south at Mountain Road. This guy gave a "toot-toot" on the horn not for me, but for Colin Ramstad, who was filming on the other side of the tracks in the nearby field.

CSXT Q406
Title:  CSXT Q406
Description:  A fair amount of trash containers were on this train. Thank God they were all empty! In this photo and the next one, you can see a "captain's chair" (the blue thing with black legs), which I enjoy using while railfanning to take a load off.
