CSX 500, 7536, 8432, 1506, 2653, 8461, FURX 5579 |
| Description: |
A 7-locomotive mixed fright train stopped in Connellsville to get a new crew. The star of the lineup is CSX 500, the "Spirit of Grafton". But the rest of the engines were all standard cabs of various model types. Making for one interesting train. |

| Description: |
Not to often do you see a coal train in 2011 with an SD50-2 and SD40-2 at the front. This is westbound train U641-27 which finally got underway after dealing with a switch that woundn't throw for a few hours. FINALLY someone thought to check and see if something was in the way of the switch, and it was thrown by hand. |
