Part of the big trade. CSX got 12 SD40-2's from NS. NS got SD80macs from CSX. These are the NS engines at CSX Shops at Huntington,WV. Curtis
More units for the new 4000-series SD40-3's I assume? I heard there were a couple ex-DM&E units in the dead line as well.
This string of tankcars and flats and gons for pipe were sitting on the westbound mainline just west of the wye outside Glendive. No power around for them and I didn't see any activity up the branch there. Puzzlers like this make me wish for a Trainmasterr to call! And the lighting was just so good for this empty waiting on a crew just east of the wye, on the mainline.
