Two AWW SD9's load coal at Oakland City, sadly the railroad was finally taken control of by NS in early 2006 from what I've heard.
SD9's lugging 80 car coal trains on the ex-NYC in southern Indiana coal country in 2006? I'll take it! Sadly, this track, these engines, are no more from what I hear.
A short and very fast moving train 112 emerges from a tunnel of trees near MP 171
Definitely worthy of a chase west, passing through a tunnel of trees near Francisco coal mine.
A new BNSF is a rare treat for southern Indiana. Passing the AWW main.
Ah the roar of first gen EMD's and loaded coal. Long hood forward to boot!
Heading south on ISRR main for coal pickup at Buckskin
