Autorack train with a CSXT unit up front near Philbrook, MN on the BNSF.

2:44 PM CSXT Q400 aka "The Powerhouse" rolls northbound with a pretty good sized train. He had 6 engines on him. This manifest train is known as "The Powerhouse", because he shuttles a large amount of locomotives (usually between 5 and 13 units) to the north. Nice K5HL on the lead unit. Note that the train begins to slow down towards the end as he approaches Downtown Ashland. Recorded 8.14.2009

Launched to 379900 feet (72 miles) on May 17, 2004 by the Civilian Space Exploration Team led by Ky Michaelson and Jerry Larson, and sponsored by GoFast Sports. The rocket was powered by a solid rocket motor built by Derek Deville (www.ddeville.com and Korey Kline. The motor produced a peak thrust of 16000 lbs accelerating the vehicle at 23 g's. At 10.5 seconds into the flight the vehicle was at about 40000 feet and traveling at 3420 mph (Mach 5) setting an amateur speed record. After motor ...

CSXT 0825 heads northbound through Plant City, FL on its way to Central with GP38-2S #4427 and GP60 #6897 and 1 hopper and 16 tank cars.

5:26 PM Finally, something other than a GEVO in the lead! CSXT Q406 heads north with a flared SD70MAC and a somewhat fouled K5LAR24 horn mounted atop. This was a fairly good-sized train, but I have seen him a lot longer than this. 5:28 PM Just as Q406 clears, Amtrak P053, the southbound "Autotrain", reset the gates to their lowered position. The gates didn't even raise all the way by the time this train got here. One of Nathan Hall's buddies is an engineer, and he was at the controls on this ...

CSXT 8722 heads out of Huntington West Virginia on the Kanawha Subdivision.

On The 30th car on the train you can see a black dude on the other side of the grain car look at my dad as he passed and apparently the guy had a suit case with him and think that it was a passenger train but it was ...

CSXT 8577 leads the AINAR thru town. It has a Leslie S5T on it and it is absolutely spectacular. On the heels of the AINAR is a YPB 72. As this train passes, you can see the headlight of the YPB72. Close to the end of the train is a old DTI 86 ft autoparts boxcar. The horn sounded good in the distance as it headed out of town.

Another cab ride on CSX, this one even better than the last. =D This is CSXT 2475, the first in a series of SD50's to be derated to 3000 horsepower(from 3500) in an attempt to reduce fuel consumption. The new locos are designated SD50-2. I get to hear the engineer start the locomotive, then ride around as he's forming a train from two sidings nearby. It was a really cool experience. Warning: Mild language from the engineer. Haha. XD Be sure to watch Part 2! www.youtube.com...

Formerly symboled K951, the eastbound morning Rock Runner is seen on two different days, climbing Barnesville Hill with a GP40-2/RDSLUG/GP40-2 lashup and then a trio of GP40-2s, the leader 6156, a former WM GP40-2. This train runs from the Millville, WV Quarry (owned now by Aggregate Industries) and runs to Bladensburg, MD (a suburb of Washington DC) and then returns. It used to run with a caboose, but unfortunetly this is no longer the case.

A CSXT freight rolling through downtown LaGrange at 10 mph.

First off we are at Sterling, Ohio on the old Baltimore and Ohio Railroad mainline to that runs between Chicago and Newcastle, PA. Sterling was a junction with the line that ran down to Warwick and also at one time the Erie Lackawana. mainline crossed at grade and was controlled by a tower. First train we see is a ex C & O SD40 and two geeps and a long coal train. Then we at Barr Yard in Chicago where we see a freight leaving with 4 units bound for Ohio. Next up we are at 130th and Broadway ...

Manhattan, Bronx, whichever you believe it's still a cool place to loose an hour of your life if you like passenger trains and transit action...... And for the record, I do personally believe that I am standing in Manhattan because I am south of 231st St where the Spuyten Duyvil creek originally ran.....

Wow. The Leslie RS3L on this engine had me in awe. CSXT (LMS) C40-8W 7921, an ex-CR locomotive, leads a northbound grain train through the small town of Lagoda, IN., on the CSXT's Monon Subdivision. Filmed on November 29th, 2008.

It wasn't that long ago when CSXT had ample variety running around on its trains. Compare to 2009, there is almost no foreign/lease power in CSXT's Jacksonville Service Lane plus the famous flyash train is no more. Take a look at the year 2005, when you never knew what that lead motor would be.

The 2 West Coast Class 1 railroad's power takes Q669 towards Greenwood and beyond.

12:01 PM Next up is a short Q741 with intermodal and Tropicana. The lead unit is an ES44AC, which strayed away from its normal duty on coal trains. An extra horn blast was given as he flew past us at about 55 miles per hour. The K5HLL sounds really good on the #880. *This was taken from a hill about 20 feet above the RF&P Sub. Someone needs to come after this hill with a weedwhacker. It's way too good a videotaping location to be covered in weeds. I think I may have gotten a few bugbites ...

**Please Watch in HD** 12/2008 Conrail Shared Assets train WPCA-51 heads southbound on the Beesley Point Secondary on a snowy December afternoon. At the helm of the train is CSXT GP15-1 #1554 still in Conrail Quality colors and is only ONE of TWO GP15's on CSX's roster still left in Conrail Quality paint. This video was filmed in December of 2008. CSXT #1554 was last sighted working in Port Newark, NJ. Locomotives (Railroad/Number) CSXT GP15-1 #1554 (CR Q paint) Norfolk Southern GP38-2 #5223 ...

Here are some vintage CSXT trains passing through Sterling, Ohio at the former Erie Lackawana interlocking tower, plus we go up stairs and sit in for a short time with the operator this video was made in 1988. Back before the wide cabs and ditch lights and other stuff.

CSX Q621 heads north on the St. Lawrence Subdivision with a multitude of power. A CN C44-9W, CN SD70M-2, and a CSX Road slug pair. Behind the operating power are 7 New Jersey Transit locomotives! (GP40FH-2;s and F40PH-2CAT's). On the tail of this mixed manifest are 14 NJT passenger cars.
