Amtrak, CSX, and Conrail. Locations include Milford Jct., Elkhart, and Walkerton. Some scanner audio from my Yaesu FT-23R. In May 1991 CSX started getting their very first order of widecab locomotives, the C40-8Ws. Also this year was the unveiling of the Conrail Quality scheme on their 2nd order of C40-8Ws. Train symbols are shown where known. Filmed with a Panasonic OmniMovie VHS Camcorder.
