@xChiicago: Highest priority freights, usually intermodal trains with piggybacks (trailers) are assigned the Z symbol. Some of the Z trains ship perishables, which are time sensitive. If you browse through my channel, I've posted various Z train videos.
@mafarnz: I missed my chance to catch the OS in California earlier, so imagine my surprise when the UP Dispatcher was talking about a Special, then I heard the hogger respond with "UP 1983" while I chased the first Z train!
@AndreiTupolev: Most of the Union Pacific ones have been downrated, but CSX is keeping theirs. Twin exhaust stacks on this one, which means it's the real deal, and if you listen to the prime mover as it's passing by, you can tell it sounds different.
Nice!! At least 4 BNSF trains with CSX Units. I saw that "Diversity in Motion" AC60 in Lacey, WA a while back when he was trailing on an Everett to Vancouver, WA bound manifest. That unit is one of 3 Diversity units for CSX.

To what are you referring--'shave and a haircut'?

@sgtredbluered: That's the rhythm of how the horn was honked by the engineer when the subtitle appears on the video.

Nice shots, from my home turf no less! I was disappointed I didn't get to see the OS with 1983, glad someone caught it.

@MrUnionpacific: The hogger for that Z train sure was having fun, with "shave and a haircut" and flashing the lights for me at the crossing.

Is that an actual for-real AC6000? Most of them have been downrated, haven't they?
