The only available engine for autorack train Q277-24 was the GE C44-9W which had no working air conditioning, therefore the door was being kept open. Also it was low on oil, so this long train was not moving very fast at all. The CSX crew did not seem very happy. The train is seen here at Broadford crossing over from Track 2 to 1.
