That Tunnel near Paintsville was tight, almost able to rip the awning off that is over the windows.

Awesome chase of the Santa Train! UP 3985 disguised as Clinchfield 676 for the Santa Train in the 1990s one time. CSX has kept this tradition alive for many years.

On 12-30-23 7788 was laid up in storage. And I think it was put into storage in early December. 7777 was first one stored.

CSX needs to incorporate a steam program like UP has and let a true locomotive pull it
@eastkentuckyrailfan21 күн бұрын
CSX Has banned Steam from their system’s tracks. Hopefully they reverse that decision and will let steam on the line and the Santa Train one day.

Thanks! Big sandy has 4 daily freights, coal traffic, and some as needed grain and ethanol trains. How many of those run during daylight hours is hit and miss. Sometimes you’ll see 8 some days you’ll see 1
