CSX 9992-9993 on a Business train highballs toward Sand Patch. 6/05/2002

I rode on this train back when Conrail owned it. Had Dinner on the train. The top executives on the RR know how to travel. I did not know the train still existed. I thought it was scrapped when CSX took over.

Nice looking train...Those units look new..Great maintenance..

Thanks guys for the information. A pair of F40PHs certainly have plenty of power to highball a long business train along the line.

[Petemonster62]

Those F40PH diesels look good in the CSX scheme!

Amtrak 390 = CSX 9992

Amtrak 395 = CSX 9993

Amtrak 280 = CSX 9998

Amtrak 288 = CSX 9999

Jack, I'd assume this location was made off limits by the water company too as of today?

[text97]

WTF is a business train? Is it a train CSX execs travel around on?

[1jackdk]

Thats is correct. Most railroads have a business train, or OCS train... (office car special)

[Trainzfan21century]

@text97 They don't use it very often, only for special company events and corporate travel for big events. There are a total of 4 F40 locomotives that can be used to power the train, all of them are former Amtrak locomotives. They are CSXT 9992, 9993, 9998, & 9999 (the latter 2 were only aquired a couple of years ago). Also, most of the cars are in an old B&O paint scheme yet the locos mentioned above are in the new "Dark Future" paint.

Good Footage I saw this train sitting in a yard in downtown baltimore Maryland. I think i took photos just i cant seem to find them

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

what kind of engines were on that csx buisness train because i just love how they look

[1jackdk]

Those are ex-Amtrak F40's. I believe that CSX has at least four of them. They do look good. Thanks for looking. Jack...

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

no problem and thanks

[thetrainman407]

AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!

[1jackdk]

Thanks!!! Glad you enjoyed it. Jack...

[DJGENEX71]

Awesome! I saw this train in Marietta once. Love those F-40's in the CSX paint! Too bad no horn in the video. Still 5*!

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

those engines were F-40's???? if so are those at the end it looks like the car has a cab in it can this train be driven by 1 of its own cars even??????

[1jackdk]

Yes, they are F40's. The last car is where the big wheels from the railroad sit to inspect the railroad. There are spot lights all over the rear of the train, and at night it lights the rr up like daylight. Thanks for looking. Jack...

[xxxDeath9572xxx]

oh thanks

[amtraklover]

nice video. Too bad CSX doesn't have the f units anymore
