CN 5626 & CITX 3095
Title:  CN 5626 & CITX 3095
Description:  These two engines are the 3rd and 4th of 5 on CSX train 626-17 late this evening. I first saw the train in Jordan at CP306, and it was moving very slow. They were just getting back up to speed here when the defect detector read back a hot-box on the north side of axle 54, and so they had to stop the train in Warners at CP300..........bummer!

Q626-17
Title:  Q626-17
Description:  Since I was working against the sun, I had to settle on a going away shot here. If it was'nt for the CN and CITX units, I would'nt have bothered. Unfortunately the train will have to stop at CP300 in Warners because the defect detector sensed a hot-box on the north side of axle 54! The consist is led by CSX #260.

Q621-10
Title:  Q621-10
Description:  When I saw this train leaving DeWitt yard in a WB direction, I figured that it was heading north on the St. Lawrence-sub. There are few other trains that haul intermodal containers, and mixed freight at the same time. They're passing through Hamlin Marsh here in the early afternoon.

CEFX trio on the Susie-Q
Title:  CEFX trio on the Susie-Q
Description:  I broke away from the action at CP293 to check out the Q620 coming off the St. Lawrence-sub. The Q620 went from the wye at CP291 to track 1, then over to track 2, then over to track 7! Usually they do a crew change on track 8, the north runner, but a track maintenance crew was on 8. That totally messed-up my plans for a photo...oh well. So on the way back to CP293 I checked out the Susie-Q trackage and found this lease trio!
