@bullfrog1954 I too had explored the OML in the late 90s back before the whole terror craze begun. It has a lot of good spots to railfan from, especially when I would catch that Chessie GP40 which CSX use to religiously run on D776 out of Curtis bay with a whole train of Chessie hoppers. Those were the days.
Me, personally, I like almost anything coming off the OML because I thoroughly explored it in the 70s and 80s, and it's the first Chessie line I ever rode! But Bob, you did it again-you got my parking space on video! It's near that yellow arrow sign and several yards in this direction! I've also stood where you did for a couple runbys myself-GREAT spot for anything coming off the old main! Oh, yeah-I was trapped here once...
@bullfrog1954 Thanks Gus! Yea this is a great spot, too bad commuters don't run through here on the OML anymore. I remember that video when you were down by the Obelisk and two trains gotcha! lol

Could this be Q411? I caught a 411 entering the OML at Rocks 2 weeks ago that had similar cars.

@MrConraal This was indeed 411

Rare to see a GE non-widecab loco leading nowadays. Caught a few shitty pics with my phone of the same C40-8 behind a GEVO but that was weeks ago :(
