Railfan Pictures of the Week - 04/28/2019 |
CSX Trenton Line CP Berry Philadelphia PA April 23 2019 |
The CSX Geometry Train has been a two car affair for years (2004 and 2018 versions) but recently it has expanded to a three car train like Conrail's (1995), but that still does not beat the three engine/two car train NS once ran (2015). |
Power for the train was CSX GP40-2 6025, as usual. |
The new kid is FLORENCE which has the appearance of a stainless steel baggage car. |
CSX 994364 COLUMBUS was second. |
Trailing was Track Geometry Car 994302. |
Thanks to track work on the main, NI had to run it on the siding. The train would make a trip up to Oak Island and return to tie up in Woodbourne Yard, testing the main the next day on the way west. |
