CSX GenSet at Wyoming Yard 5-12-08
I saw a CSX NRE GenSet sitting outside the house this morning. Any idea what she's doing in GR? How many do they have?

Re: CSX GRE MQT Train Location Update 4-1-08
Two unit coal trains at the old GRI North yard waiting to go north 1 to the new power plant at Ludington, the other is for Tondu in Manistee. Power on one is new BNSF run thru, the other has Greinsteins. That's wrong. I heard it was a Big Boy pulling one of those loads. I keep having a dream about ...

Nice video. I especially liked that it didn't have any annoying music in it--just the sounds of the engines. I do have one suggestion, though, try to get a wind filter for the microphone, that would have made it even better! -- Garry K Amen to the lack of music. Nothing beats the sound of a turboch...

Very nice. Would love to hang out on a real freight line for a day and see what it's really like. Is everyone really nice? How do you like working there? Ive been thinking about switching careers, but I'm not sure if I want to make that leap yet. I'm thankful to work where I do because the majority...

I was Conductor on the Baldwin Turn yesterday. We had 30-something cars going South last night. We were pushing a lot of snow between Walhalla and Baldwin so I can only imagine the copious amounts of snow South. I talked to CSX when we tied up at 10:00pm last night and they had 15 cars for us to go ...

That is MQT's colors and I'm not sure if it's publicly accessible, but I can tell you it's quite the hike from the nearest public road. I prefer to keep off RailPics for a few reasons.
