| Description: |
CSX train Q368-27 at dusk, with a visitor from south of the border. It arrived at Connellsville at about 16:45 and was due for a new crew at 17:00. It arrived late and it was 17:30 by the time the train restarted. Losing available light rapidly, I was worried Id not be able to pull off a shot of the train moving. Fortunately here it had not picked up much speed yet, and I got my shot from Memorial Bridge. Q368 trains have been known for their epic locomotive lineups over the years. This one consisted of FXE 4664, CSX 7873, FURX 3022, CSX 7608, CSX 7820, CSX 5313, and CSX 698. |

| Description: |
One of the seven engines on train Q352-17, and this one is off to Cumberland to face retirement. It has nicer paint than some, so it is sad to see. |
