CSX 4846 and 8870 Q277-29 (1)
Title:  CSX 4846 and 8870 Q277-29 (1)
Description:  Autorack train Q277-29 is going west on Track 2 with two EMD engines that were built almost 40 years apart from each other. No matter the age difference, an EMD always has that tell-tale sound.

CSX 8870 (2)
Title:  CSX 8870 (2)
Description:  The second engine on Q277-29, an EMD SD40-2 in new paint that has an interesting history. Built as KCS 605 SD40 in November 1966. Later it became Conrail 6963 and was rebuilt to an SD40-2R. It still has its original short SD40 body. Here you can see that along with a repainting, it has had an air conditioning unit added to the roof.
