Sometimes things are not what they appear. It looks like the SWP railroad is now in the oil train business. But actually they were simply moving these tank cars to a different track so that they could get to the cars they needed. The tank cars would later go out on a K057 train. |

Just by pure luck, a K053 empty oil train passes west at exactly the right time as SWP train Z687-05 is shoving back into the Connellsville CSX Yard. It almost feels like it could be a scene from the Midwest. Especially if you consider that SWP 4006 still has the grey paint from KCS. |

Light engine movement going north at Bowest, towards CSX and Connellsville. It is a good thing they were not pulling anything because this is a going away shot and the light was best for that. The leaves have been stripped from the trees by days of heavy storms and winds. And now we get the nice weather. |

A GP40-3 and slug combination taking a train north past a nice lush cornfield on the grounds of Sand Hill Berries/ Greendance Winery. They obviously grow a bit of corn too! The train was headed to the Safe Handling terminal in East Huntington. |

Marooned |
| Description: |
An empty sand train of 80 cars and eight locomotives (SWP 406, SWP 4006, AVR 4005, AVR 405, CN 8813, CN 8942, CN 8897, NS 9886) coming to a stop at O&B Junction in Wheeler Bottom, Dunbar Township. The crew had to leave the train here because CSX was going to make them wait too long to get onto their tracks across the river. Up above the train the Sheepskin bike/hike trail runs along the hillside, which used to the the lead track for Western Maryland Railways Bowest Yard. |

Eight is great |
| Description: |
An epic eight locomotive lineup of SWP 406, SWP 4006, AVR 4005, AVR 405, CN 8813, CN 8942, CN 8897, and NS 9886 that has just picked up a train of 80 empty sand cars in Lemont Furnace, PA. That was after they ran a loaded train down to Smithfield, PA early in the morning in the dark. SWP 406-4006 and AVR 4005-405 work together as slug sets, giving a rare chance to get both of them together on one train. |
