Why would they remove the main portion of a siding forcing all traffic through the diversion? Assuming they will re-align the main for straight running?

B731 sounds good!!

Есть такая причина когда путь сам ложиться так как не нужно он называется выброс пути рельсы и это очень смертельно опасно может человека убить или устроить крушение поезда не важно какого.

Must've been a change sometime with upper management!

ooh snap on truck at @1:02

I hate seeing rail ripped up you can't tell me it not cheaper getting thing by rail.

I loaded scrap ties at Paris, KY and Cynthiana back in the 90's. Trucker them over from Morgan, KY. What a goat path🐐 road that was.

Thank you for the web site

Great I never seen rail removed like is its fantastic thanks

I've seen too many pencil pushers making decisions about abandoning track when they haven't got a clue, pull up double main track and lo and behold couple years later they're going oh shit we shouldn't have done that, that's what happens when you hire fry Cooks McDonald's to run a Railroad, most of them wouldn't know a tie plate from a track hammer but they can tell you what temperature the oil should be in the deep fryer when they throw the fries in LOL

CM44ACs are awesome

csx always has been bad at management, it was when i worked there from 1998 to 2010. I worked chicago division, great lakes and huntington divisions. It got pretty good between 2008 to 2009 on huntington division. then everything started going down hill when coal traffic took dropped because of president elected in 2008.

More EHH followers at work. But with the fall of coal, I shouldn't be surprised. Most through traffic between Atlanta and Cincinnati I think runs via Nashville now. That track 2 being added could be a signalled siding being put in to help for the loss of double track. How long was that stretch of double track?

1:45 Surprised there are still searchlight signals from the old L&N.

This was once CSX’s busiest mainline on the system, and one of only two subdivisions (the other being the Fitzgerald Sub) that warranted its own dedicated dispatcher. Thanks to piss poor management and “PSR” running off business, the traffic has fallen off across the system. A shame. Glad I was able to watch this railroad back in the early 2000’s before it went to s***. It’s sadly a shell of its former self now.

What an awesome LONGGGG TRAIN 🤯😵😱 WITH 15 LOCOS GOING TO THE SCRAPPER 😭😭😭😭, GREAT VIDEO, 😁😉👌👍

They cane through LaGrange the other day.

It’s crazy you can see that Chessie logo fading through

Scrap values are low. Something must be really wrong, like damaged frame. The GP-38-40s are still a valued, serviceable piece of equipment. 🚂

Death train :(

When you have a train full of dead locomotives, it's often referred to as a funeral train.

Man, just like many of their steam breathing predecessors, they're being sent off to scrap.

I'm going to renumber one of the CSX GP's on my layout after one of those old girls. Tribute.

CSX is still using MP15Ts, so I wonder what was wrong with the one being hauled off to LTEX. Blown turbo or something of a more serious nature that resulted in it being written off?

by looking at them some of them have rusted out pretty badly.

It's too bad that some of them aren't headed to museums. Guess scrap value is more than LTEX could write off in donations.

The noses would make a great wall mount

0:18 A STEALTH GRAY LOCOMOTIVE?!?!?

What a sad ending to some great locomotives

Well I know there’s a reason

Congrats on 1000 subs

So sadddd

😊

Hopefully they don’t board up or fill in tunnel 2. Not only is it historic, it enables safe railfan trespassing for once in the history of the L&N. If one has made a special effort to get out to Lambs Ferry Rd and/or Locust Pike to see these beauties they can safely take a stroll through tunnel 2, in order to avoid the danger of being caught in the middle of tunnel 1 with a train approaching.

Excellent!!!!

Sad times

Lmao wtf is wrong with the comments, And Nice Footage of 475!

Perhaps CSX is just trying to take rail where it can be spared to use on Pan Am while new steel prices are inflated. I believe they have since replaced some of this.

Incidentally, 4036 is the former L&N 8012. Probably operated through here numerous times.

Question after the abandoned railroad tracks got removed. Did they make a bicycle path?

Sweet catch. I caught one of these(CSX 9039) yesterday morning trailing on a WB UP manifest. Like my third or fourth one I caught since Railfanning.

P r o m o S M

Could use a wash

Excellent video of a Warbonnet coming out of Lambs Ferry. The overcast really makes the color pop. Super photography and videography. This is one spot I still haven't been to since I started back railfanning nearly 8 months ago.

Sick catches!

Odd they are removing the main and not the siding. I assume they will realign the track so its direct. Also I believe RR should be exempt from local property taxes as the localities provide no benefit. And trucks use tax payer supplied roads and don't pay property taxes...so the system is backwards.

Imagine if it whistled in the camera

Fascinating documentation!!

Very beautiful 👍
