Excellent video. This brings back a lot of memories for me. It is great to see that era again without any CSX, but you do see some signs of things to come with the Seaboard and CRR hoppers. Great job.

That's cool man, thank you for sharing what you did video, and record. The audio is most excellent to match the video, thanks for making the extra effort!

That is one of the sweetest K5LA's I've ever heard!

Seaboard family hoppers (Seaboard, Family Lines, Clinchfield) in that coal train, sign of things to come with the formation of CSX.

I don't think I have any more. Mostly I was taking slides in those days. I didn't have a video recorder...just a camera and had to borrow a record deck which was the size of a major city phone book. If I turn up more Chessie, I'll post it.

Thanks for the clarification, however I don't know of any way to correct the video and replace the old one on KZbin. I just hope people will read the comments and see your post.

@Trainmaster02 Wow, that was so long ago, I don't really remember. It was probably a county road or railroad access road. I'm sure it's on a county roadmap. Thanks for the positive feedback.

Did you catch the C&O 614 that winter of 1985?

@Trainmaster02 "Upon further review", and looking at some satellite images, I think it might be Moss Run rather than Jerry's Run. It was a long time ago, and I don't have a clear memory. Maybe someone familiar with the geography will post something.

does the CSX still run over this section of C&O Mainline via Allagannies? what kind of horn was on the Chessie C&O SD50?

Did Chessie System merge into what is now CSX or they seperate entities? I know CSX is Chessie Seaboard Express so i figured the 2 might be connected.

how did your dad die if you don't mind me asking, and how long was he with C&O and then Chessie system?

Sorry Espeelover, I hit "Remove" rather than " Reply" Klutz! You asked "Whats all that smoke from?" I believe it's from brake shoes being applied on the downgrade.
