| Description: |
GE ES44AC-H with the new CSX "boxcar" logo design. The order of 50 new locomotives (950-999) is now complete. Seen on the helper track in the Connellsville CSX yard. CSX 983 was coupled next to this one. I was not standing on CSX property for this photo. |

CSX 983 (2) |
| Description: |
Two of the newer GE ES44AC-H's shoving a coal train through the mountains between Casparis and Indian Creek. Why is it so dirty looking already you ask? Well you'd get dirty too if you got put on the back of these coal trains. Note the metal box on the ground. That is a grease box which puts grease on the train wheels for less friction on curves. Friction shortens the lifespan of both the wheels and the rails. |

The B251 helper set going back west to their home in the Connellsville yard. CSX 983 was on the other end. These two newer GEVO's have been in helper service for several months. |

CSX 983 (3) |
| Description: |
A GE ES44AC-H helper set rounds the bend at the Route 381 grade crossing in Ohiopyle State Park, catching some of the last sunlight of the evening. CSX 984 was behind this one, as always. I was just about ready to go home when I heard the crossing signals go off, and I made it over to the crossing just in time for a photo. The camera was left on "landscape mode" because I did not have time to change it. I guess it still turned out alright. |

Q214 was left on Track 2 all day, because there was not enough space in the yard to keep it. That is a consequence of the very long trains on CSX now. |
