Southbound loaded Coal Train pauses at Spartanburg, SC for a crew change before heading south to Augusta. Diaster would strike only a few miles into the trip as lead Unit 8105 would die on the Ora grade. The Train would finially make it into Greenwood, SC 6 Hours later and get a Helper added. We followed this Train all the way back to Augusta. The crew barely made it to Augusta before going on the law!!!

With the eagerly anticipated Northtown-Tulsa coming out of the departure yard, I was horrified to see the grove job coming into my shot. Thankfully, the Grove Job stopped and I was able to my video of the NTW-TUL.

A little B&W to set the tone, on perhaps my last time pointing a camera at a CSX YN1 SD40-2, heck, maybe even CSX SD40-2's all together. But, I think there might be a few more that will find there way up here!

Its the famous CSXT 8105. Bleading through Family Lines scheme, and in YN1 to top it off. If this is the last one I see on the mains (which I hope not) here on the BNSF, than what a way to go out!

All I have to say is wow, what an amazing lashup! I've always wanted to see a CSX unit in the 8105s paint. I've been seeing a lot of CSXT power up here in the last few weeks, lets hope it continues!

In a scene that good have existed years ago, a CSXT unit and a former BN SD70MAC rest by the sanding towers.
