HiDef: Pacing CSX 1776, 3194, AND 911 Long Hood Forward!

On October 4th, SMS Railroad in Bridgeport, NJ held its first ever "Wheels and Rails" event, featuring classic cars on display, along with CSX's three newest commemorative ES44AC locomotives:
CSXT 1776 "Spirit of Our Armed Forces"
CSXT 3194 "Spirit of Law Enforcement"
CSXT 911 "Spirit of First Responders"
After the event ended for the day, I gave chase to the three units coupled together. We'll first see them just outside the SMS shop complex with 911 leading the trio out to the interchange with Conrail Shared Assets in Logan Township. Then, after a Conrail crew arrived later that night, the decision was made to relay the units unassisted across the river for the mainline freight to pick up the next day. In addition to not having an extra motor lead the trio, they ran long hood forward back from Bridgeport, making for an extremely rare opportunity. We'll catch them with 1776 in the lead at CP WOODBURY, then pace them along Route 45, and finally at the pedestrian crossing in Brooklawn. All three units sp If you enjoyed this content, please leave a like, comment, and don't forget to subscribe!

Dude. That was an awesome video. Perfect chase. I was lucky enough to catch them trailing on Q404 at Yardley. But before the catch at Yardley I got them when they arrived to work Woodbourne. Was a little dark though. 9 engines total on 404.
