WE 3102 |
| Description: |
Empty ore train K111-06 going west on Track 43 through the CSX yard in Connellsville. I did not expect it to be sent in on this track and it caught me off guard. It would have been shadowed on the other side of the autroracks so its probably for the best. This is one of the SD40-3 Brewster Shop rebuilds and is a former UP 3102 SD40 built in 1971. The train stopped down at the west end of the yard and the crew left. |

| Description: |
Another ore train heads east on CSX trackage along Water Street in Connellsville. I wanted an angle more to the left on the river side but an autorack train fouled me yet again. This was taken from the Crawford Avenue Bridge. After going under the bridge, the train stopped briefly to throw the switch to 43 Track. Then it went through the yard and got held at Greene Junction in South Connellsville. Looks like all the railfans in Maryland will have another W&LE treat sent their way. |

| Description: |
A trio of SD40-2s bringing the empty coke train K301-02 west to the Wheeling and Lake Eries interchange. You can see it switching over right here. WE 6354 SD40-2 was acquired by the Wheeling and Lake Erie in 2008 and was one of two locomotives to be painted as AWVR 1206 for the now-famous Unstoppable movie. Built as KCS 665 in January 1974. The loads of steel coil were added onto the train in Connellsville. Autorack train Q277-04 is on the right on Track 4. Photographed from public property on Memorial Bridge. |
