Must See - NS Lehigh Valley leads freight 14K with pusher DPU as NS 4000 + Lackawanna heritage on CSX V089

Plus less then 1 hour 30 minutes later just a few miles north on the CSX New Castle Sub, I saw CSX westbound grain V089 with Lackawanna heritage SD70ACe #1074 trailing 2nd.

Nice video and photos Tom. Send some of those trains to Pittsburgh .....

Well Jim, actually last night, the Lehigh and 4000 were on NS eastbound freight 10N through Pittsburgh.

Tom you may want to hang onto the grain train. I saw the announcement that the Canada Grain cars are all to be replaced soon and will be a thing of the past. 

Tom, You certainly picked up some nice ones there!  When you wrote New Castle Sub, I figured they were heading to Pittsburgh.  

And I still need to figure when I can get up to Corner Field!  

Interesting, how the train was built, having buffer cars between groups of tankers.

The trains around me (South jersey) use all short cars, like O traditional versus O Scale. No main line.

Thanks, Tom, Jr.

i believe the cars were grouped by destination...not so much as having "buffer cars" between the groups of tank cars......some one in the industry may know better than i...
