Title:  BNSF 8832 and CREX 1303
Description:  Empty oil train K055 is of the many afternoon westbound trains that passed through Broadord in a period of a few hours on this day. The paint on this SD70MAC has held up a lot better than some on BNSF.

CREX 1308 and BNSF 9300
Title:  CREX 1308 and BNSF 9300
Description:  Empty westbound oil train crossing the triple arches of the Indian Creek Bridge. For this photo I stood back for a fuller view of the bridge which meant a reflection of the train got hidden by the grass bank. Cant win them all, in every photo.

CREX 1414 and 1312
Title:  CREX 1414 and 1312
Description:  Empty oil train K045 going west through Broadford, PA on Track 1. It had already done a crossover several miles away, so it is rapidly picking up speed here. With oil prices falling, one has to wonder how long the oil shale boom will continue and how much longer it will be feasible to ship oil these great distances on the rails.

Title:  CREX 1322 and BNSF 764
Description:  An empty oil train is being put away on the west end of the Connellsville CSX Yard. The train has to be taken apart because it does not all fit onto one track. On the bright side, this yard is going to get some more tracks put back in, which can't come soon enough.

Ferrocaril Mexicano!
Title:  Ferrocaril Mexicano!
Description:  CSX train Q368-27 at dusk, with a visitor from south of the border. It arrived at Connellsville at about 16:45 and was due for a new crew at 17:00. It arrived late and it was 17:30 by the time the train restarted. Losing available light rapidly, I was worried Id not be able to pull off a shot of the train moving. Fortunately here it had not picked up much speed yet, and I got my shot from Memorial Bridge. Q368 trains have been known for their epic locomotive lineups over the years. This one consisted of FXE 4664, CSX 7873, FURX 3022, CSX 7608, CSX 7820, CSX 5313, and CSX 698.
