CSX 7622 and 7572
Title:  CSX 7622 and 7572
Description:  At least for one day, CSX train Q388 turned back the clock and used a pair of C40-8 standard cabs in YN2 paint. It is hard to get one engine in this paint now, let alone two. The snowfall was from a few days ago, but melting fast. Little did I know, CSX would retire their C40-8 fleet a year later in 2017.

Title:  CSX 953 and 968
Description:  An eastbound coal train at West Yough, at medium-approach speed because it will be stopping for a crew change. It was running on Track 1 instead of Track 2 for some reason. The sun disappeared behind clouds at exactly the wrong time.

Description:  Running backwards under the signals to go against a coal train to add more power on. I didn't realize it at the time, but the whole CSX C40-8 lineup would be retired later on in 2016.
