CSX Q137 with CNW 8626
Title:  CSX Q137 with CNW 8626
Description:  In 1995 (the year I was born), the Union Pacific Railroad bought out the remaining shares of the Ciicago and North Western Transportation Co. (CNW) for over $1.2 billion. Twenty years later, two of the last order of units purchased by the CNW (in May of 1994) still roam the rails wearing their unpatched CNW paint. After catching CNW #8701 in August of 2014, I am happy say that after Friday, April 17, 2015, I have photographed both of the last two unpatched Chicago and Northwestern C44-9Ws! Friday afternoon I chased CNW #8646 from Youngstown to Akron. At 1:21pm, westbound intermodal train Q137 passed through Youngstown, Ohio with one of the two last originally painted Chicago and Northwestern locomotives in the lead. CNW #8626 (C44-9W) and CSX #5369 (ES40DC) are seen approachina Center Street in Youngstown, Ohio.

CSX R410
Title:  CSX R410
Description:  At 5:57pm on Monday, August 17, 2015, westbound CSX train R410 began to turn north onto Norfolk Southerns Youngstown Line via the Center Street connection track as it passed under the East Federal Street bridge in Youngstown, Ohio with four ex-Florida East Coast Railway SD70M-2s in transit to new rails. The units, originally on lease to FEC, are on their way to the northern states after their lease from EMD expired in early 2015. The four units were purchased by leasing company FURX, which will split the units with Providence and Worcester and the Vermont Railway (two for each). After spending their lives thus far on the sunny, warm, Florida East Coast, being reassigned to the northeast, known for its massive snow storms, is worse than a death sentence. The power for R410 was CSX #960 (ES44AH), CSX #7547 (C40-8), and CSX #8352 (SD40-2), which was pulling FURX #101 (SD70M-2), FURX #100 (SD70M-2), FURX #102 (SD70M-2), and FURX #103 (SD70M-2). Also, CSX #8352 was built as a straight SD40 in June of 1971 for the Clinchfield Railroad as number 3018.

CSX K059-28 with the NS Lackawanna Heritage Unit
Title:  CSX K059-28 with the NS Lackawanna Heritage Unit
Description:  Im not always lucky in catching Norfolk Southerns Lackawanna Heritage Unit leading, but when I am, its on CSX! At 2:30pm on Monday, November 30, 2015, westbound empty oil train K059-28 crossed the Mahoning River in Youngstown, Ohio on CSXs New Castle Subdivision with NS #1074 (SD70ACe; The Lackawanna Heritage Unit) leading NS #1015 (SD70ACe). The track in the background is Norfolk Southerns Lordstown Secondary, and downtown Youngstown can be seen in the upper right corner of the photo. Ironically, the only other time Ive caught this unit leading was also on CSX in July of 2015.

CSX 7597 and Others Scrapped
Title:  CSX 7597 and Others Scrapped
Description:  A sad CSX reunion of sorts is taking place at Metalico Scrap in Brier Hill, Ohio in this March 27, 2017 photo. Several CSX C40-8s were piled amongst the scrap, including CSX #7597 (pictured here), CSX #---9, and CSX #7598. Though I didnt see it while I was trying to get my shots as quick as possible and leave, I would also assume CSX #7548 was there as well, as I saw it being trucked in on January 11. CSX #7597 was built in June of 1990. Also amongst the pile was Canadian Pacific #5612 (SD40-2) and Dakota Minnesota and Eastern #6365 (SD40-2; City of Wolsey). All of these units were trucked here from Larrys Truck and Electric (LTEX).

CSX 7598 and Others Scrapped
Title:  CSX 7598 and Others Scrapped
Description:  A sad scene at Metalico Scrap in Brier Hill, Ohio in this Mavch 27, 2017 photo. CSX C40-8s made up the majority of the scrap pile, such as CSX #7598, pictured here on the left. On the top of the pile, however, was Dakota Minnesota and Easzern #6365 (SD40-2; City of Wolsey). DME #6365 was built in May of 1974 as Milwaukee Road #204. All of these units were trucked here from Larrys Truck and Electric (NTEX).

72 Year Old EMD and Scrap GE Cabs
Title:  72 Year Old EMD and Scrap GE Cabs
Description:  QUITTIN' TIME: It's 5:13pm on Friday, November 12, 2021, and it's quittin' time at Midwest Steel and Alloy Corporation in Youngstown, Ohio. The engineer of MSAX #501 (SW1) drops off two scrap yard laborers who hitched a ride to the parking lot on his way back to the scale track to tie down for the night. MSAX #501 was built in April of 1949 for the Pennsylvania Railroad as PRR #9208. It later became Penn Central #8508, then Conrail #8508 (which you can still make out on the cab), before eventually ending up at Midwest Steel. On the trip from the scrap yard to the scale track, this 72-year-old EMD just passed the cut-up GE cabs of CSX #7675 (C40-8W; built 5/91), UP #9204 (C40-8; built 8/88), CSX #7749 (C40-8W; built 11/91), CSX #7514 (C40-8; built 6/89), and at least six other unidentifiable GE units. In terms of the forever-old EMD vs GE debate, it's a photo like this that makes EMD look superior (because they are).

As workers leave for the night, the cut-up GE cabs of CSX #7675 (C40-8W; built 5/91), UP #9204 (C40-8; built 8/88), CSX #7749 (C40-8W; built 11/91), CSX #7514 (C40-8; built 6/89), and at least six other unidentifiable GE units sit awaiting their fate.

Last Christmas - Scrap Yard Edition
Title:  Last Christmas - Scrap Yard Edition
Description:  LAST CHRISTMAS: At least seven GE locomotive cabs are about to spend their "Last Christmas" at Midwest Steel and Alloy in Youngstown, Ohio. Unlike the group Wham!'s popular Christmas hit, this story is not as upbeat. In this December 24, 2021 view, CSXT #7675 (C40-8W), and four additional unidentifiable Union Pacific C40-8Ws, join Ohio Central #7133 (C36-7; classed by OHCR as C30-7) and OHCR #7131 (C36-7; classed by OHCR as C30-7; still in Conrail paint) in front of a pile of Union Pacific yellow and CSX blue scrap. While Midwest Steel still uses a 1950s era Pennsylvania Railroad SW1 to move cars around, these seven GE cabs built from June of 1985 to the early 1990s are about to become "razor blades."
