Wow. It looks somewhat steeper for some reason. Maybe because the grade starts out below the interstate and ends up quite a bit higher before it...
There is a section of the CSX line that parallels I-65 between Shepherdsville and E-town. It looks like a pretty good grade, I watched an...
Won't be me. I just started fooling around with the video option on my canon, so the only other video I have is a nine second clip of a 2-10-2 on...
Ok Darren, I fold!
I see your coal train and raise you. Shot this one a couple of weeks ago back where I grew up--handheld digital camera, not an actual video...
Sorry, I forgot my role as mindless automatron I didn't realize "such comments" as voicing a different opinion would ruin the discussion. My...
I call them like I see them, chief, and the answer you suggested would have been a smart-ass answer. It's easy to say what you would do when the...
Yeah Decoursey was another one that puzzled me. I hope Osborne sticks around for awhile. By the way, are there any good places from which to...

I was out doing some railfanning/exploring a couple of days ago and went to a small railroad town called Ravenna, Kentucky. It was founded when...
Cool. I'll be there.
What show is that? If it's near Louisville I might try to make it.
Supposedly like Boxcab said, it's for heat relief. RJ Corman has hired a couple of former CSX execs. as higher-ups in his company, and now white...
Yeah, because smarting off to railroad employees is a good way to build rapport for future railfanning opportunities. :tb-rolleyes: You know,...

Here's a picture from a story in today's paper (technically yesterday's paper now I guess): [IMG] As I said before I'm not a steam fan so I...
Last weekend I went back home to eastern Kentucky, where coal is king and CSX big AC power earns its keep. I grabbed this short video of a...
It's ready to run now. Corman sent a man over to China to oversee the preparations for bringing it to the U.S. I heard somewhere else that it...
