The sun had set and all I was left with was the slowly fading light as this mixed freight train heads south for NC. |

Went out on this beautiful evening to snap a few photos. This is at the road crossing not too far up the line from where I shoot on the bridge a lot of the time. |

NS 214 (by surprise!) |
Description: |
Shooting into the sun this way, I tried my best to get a decent shot. Next set of signals is the protecting the BB(CSX)/NS diamond in town, and there was an overhead CSX train coming through. 214 had to slow down and wait, for the empty coal train to clear. Blocked a road crossing for a while, the motorists weren't happy, even saw a guy jump across a car of the slow moving train....not very smart. |

NS 228 |
Description: |
Walked on towards the bridge and had to hand around a while. There was a little ballast not too long ago it appears, within the past two weeks for sure. |

Unexpected Coal Train |
Description: |
Driving down the gravel road near my house, this happened to come on by while I was standing on the old wooden bridge over the tracks. It was a loaded PGNX hopper train, and I think it's symbol was 766, but I'm really not sure. |

Same Train, Different Day |
Description: |
Got lucky again and caught the return train of the previous shot, with the power running in the opposite direction. Pretty quick turn around time. I believe this would be the 767, if the previous symbol was correct |
