CSX doesn't run "Z-Trains" like BNSF... the intermodals are Q100's. A CSX Z-Train is a foreign road train running on CSX tracks... for example, NS B32 running on CSX is Z329...
Excellent video, Frank! I've seen plenty of videos from Blue Island, and this is by far the best I've seen! Now I'm hoping to make a stop there on my Illinois trip.
i love these videos

I just looked at this area on Google Earth. What a confusing mass of tracks!

The BNSF ES44AC confused me by the horn. Sounded like an ES44C4.

looks like IHB trabsfers with C.N. at clearing.
I hope the rumors are lies I hope that in the future it won't just be C.N. instead of C.N. and IHB

It sounds an awful lot like a Nathan P3. Iike it. How about you?

Ignore my last comment. I thought you were referring to the GP38. I believe the switcher only has a single chime horn.
Tracksider216 2 years ago 4
I'm not good with horns, but all I can say is oy vay.
