CSX 4310 |
| Description: |
CSX O701 about to leave St. Petersburg Yard with 2 motors and 15 cars, mostly loaded aggregate hoppers. The crew reported that the 4310 would not load in reverse, so the ex-Conrail GP38-2 2704 was doing all the work on reverse moves. St Petersburg Yard now consists of 2 yard tracks, of which only 1 is used except in rare occasions. Mostly used as a run-around track actually. This was once a good sized coach yard and shops where all St. Petersburg bound passenger trains terminated and were serviced. The entire yard and shops complex was abandoned in 1984 when Amtrak discontinued service to St. Petersburg. A Home Depot now sits on the site of the former yard. |

CSX 4310 |
| Description: |
Something you dont see every day while railfannning. CSXT O702 which is the Clearwater to Tampa local runs across the Clearwater municipal golf course. O702 is a semi-daily local which runs Clearwater to Tampa once daily each way. Today GP39-2 4310 and GP38-2 2704 do the duties. Power is typically 1 or 2 GP39-2's depending on train lengths. The Clearwater Sub is at it's low point as far as train traffic goes. Historically the line hosted as many as 6 passenger trains each way daily and many local and transfer freights. It is now down to O700 the Clearwater to St. Pete local and the O701 Clearwater to Tampa Local. |

CSX CW40-8's 7322 and 7868 lead Tampa to Waycross mixed freight Q651 through the Oaklawn Cemetery at South End Plant City. Note the numbering on the 7868, that is the same "font" the SCL used on it's numbers on locomotives before CSX was formed. Just a guess, but this unit was repaired and partially repainted at a former SCL shop that is NOT Waycross. Q652 was very long this morning, 9300 feet! |

Florida Central CF7 53 running on the former Atlantic Coast Line's Gainesville to Brooksville mainline which is now operated by the shortline Florida Northern Railroad. The locomotive is crossing the CSX CSX "S-Line" mainline aka the Wildwood Sub at-grade. It is heading back to the yard, the former ACL yard just North of downtown Ocala, FL. To my right, out of frame is Ocala Union Station, where the ACL and SAL and later SCL and Amtrak stopped until 2004. You can see the platform and one of the supports for the canopy on the right. The Juice Train derailed here a few years back and destroyed the canopy, which is no longer needed since passenger service ceased. Note the conductor leaning back and sticking his leg out the window. Kinda just chillin out. |

If you like US&S Searchlight signals, the CSX former ACL mainline (A-Line) is the place to see them. While some have been replaced, mainly in the Orlando area, most are still in place between Kissimmee and Tampa. Especially in the area of Lakeland and Winston. Several unique signal bridges exist here `nd nowhere else in the state of Florida. |

| Description: |
CSX Y225 with GP40-2 6900 and Road Slug 2315 cross the Hillsborough River. This bascule bridge built by the ACL in 1915. The bridgetender stands in the door to the tenders house. This bridge once saw dozens of movements a day but now sees usually just 1 movement a day and is only manned as necessary. The line to Port Tampa goes right through downtown Tampa and there is a short stretch of street running involved. The A-Line now officially ends at the Tampa Union Station leat at milepost A881.7, although it continues another 8.3 miles to old Port Tampa at A890.0 where it hits Tampa Bay. This last 8 miles of track is now known as the Port Tampa Spur. |

TECO Trolley crossing the A-Line diamond |
| Description: |
TECO Trolley #434 crossing the CSX "A-Line" mainline at Ybor Interlocking, also known as 14th Street Interlocking to CSX. It is one of the few places in the U.S. and the only place in Florida where an interurban trolley system crosses an active mainline at-grade. The first few years this existed, CSX had a switchman on-site 24 hours a day to clear trains and trolleys over the interlocking. |

This last 8 miles of track is now known as the Port Tampa Spur. CSXT 2385 is one of the newer CSX Road Slugs. |
