Скачать или смотреть Chasing CSX B247-26 w/ CP 8940 & KCS 4771 from Monon to Reynolds, Indiana

After returning from a mostly unsuccessful day of railfanning on the Lafayette District, we discovered this southbound potash train receiving a new crew while tied down in West Pass Siding. While waiting for about 20 minutes to see the train finally depart, we made the decision to commit to a short chase of the train which would end at the TP&W diamond in Reynolds, Indiana. Note the several ex C&NW hoppers as well as the few various independent Co-Op elevators with their names fading from the sides of the older hoppers. B247 originated in Chicago, Illinois and terminated in Louisville, Kentucky.

Leading CSX B247 was CP 8940, a GE ES44AC built 10-11. Trailing was KCS 4771, also a GE ES44AC, with an unknown build date.
