Great shot of a rarely seen train. I can't recall the red paint job, so that makes me like this even more.

It is really tragic CSX couldn't see beyond their own arrogence. If there wasn't enough traffic in the late 1980s, there certainly is now, and this route would have been ideal for all those container trains. Look at how well the line was maintained. SCL certainly had a use for this route. Great shot Bernie!!!
