Remarks & Notes 
Back in June of 2006, I caught the L&C Railway on a Saturday run bringing a cut of car to the Norfolk Southern interchsnge in downtown Chester. The train is hauling empty coal cars that have come from the Springs Grace Plant in Lancaster a year or two before it shut down for good.

This locomotive was built in 1978 as Conrail #8230, to Norfolk Southern #5364. NS then sold it to Helms Leasing (HLCX) who renumbered it to #3819 before selling it to the L&C as the same number. L&C owner Gulf & Ohio Railways then sent the unit to the L&C's sister company Yadkin Valley Railroad as YVRR #3819 after doing some work to it in Knoxville as well as giving it the black G&O corporate sheme.
