That was awesome, Tim! Another E109! Too bad they put that dang Dash 9 in the lead and not that SD70MAC! When is the last time they ran W068? Great video, Tim! Fav'd!
@rufec12 Thanks, Rudy. I believe that E109 was originally supposed to have a pair of AC4400's that were on Q453 two days prior to when I filmed them. That Dash 9 and SD70M was on Q453 the previous day while the 70M was on the lead at that time. As far as the work/ballast trains go, they only run when needed. CSX was doing a lot of track work on the Miami and Homestead Subs at the time.
On the FEC 222 what was that, that fell off the train and onto the ground at 3 Minutes and 38 Seconds on the time strip? Btw, thanks again for another amazing vid, 5stard and faved
Thanks Ted! It didn't surprise me that Q452 was lengthy since that was the first time it ran after Thanksgiving. Just a case of making up for lost days.
222 is a daily train. It either runs late afternoon or early evening. In most cases, you would see it in the evening in the Lake Worth/West Palm Beach area.
Thanks Ken! I know you meant K973. Took me all the way to 5:11 AM to catch them at the Fort Lauderdale Station. What held them up was JG dispatcher held them at Delray Beach on track 1 to allow Tri-Rail P601 to run around them.
Awesome video, Timmy! Ah, good old E109, shouldn't be long before V156 comes down again. Great catch of the unit in YN1 on the work train! Looks like Camino Real was upgraded to have LEDs too. Interesting catches on the other trains too. Keep up the great work!

Bravo, Tim! All excellent catches. Saturday's Q452 really had some size to it. Five stars and Fav'd. ;-)

Great video Tim. What time did K743 get there? He came through Lakeland at 12:00am.
