This looks like the Avon to Hawthorne yard local. They seem to always use 2 SD40-2's as power on those trains and the cars usually consist of the same basic thing...mixed freight with a lot of boxcars, hoppers, and your every day gondolas and tank cars. You easily mistake the train as an actual road freight and I know I did for the longest time.
I don't mind YN3, I go nuts i9f i see it on a C40-8 but other then that it looks good, all i say is also long as you know the history of the loco, Thats all that needs to be known :) the CSX GP38-2's that are in my yard, ones off the NYC, the other's Chessie :) both in matching YN2
Yep those are very nice to see and that horn seems to be everywhere. And only thing is about this spot is the telephone poles and it's a pretty rough area

That's pretty neat. And yeah I see what you mean. A few days ago I caught a YN1 SD40-2, so that was quite a nice thing to see

Glad to see another YN2 SD40-2. Personally, I hate how CSx is repainting a lot of their GP40's, Road Slugs, and SD40-2's. Nice job!
