CSX 4521
Title:  CSX 4521
Description:  Pulling a string of autorack cars west off #4 track at Greene Junction. I get a friendly wave from the conductor. Some of these guys know me pretty well by now. This may have been the westbound Q261-11 but I am not completely sure. Former CSX 721 built in September 1997.
