Thanks! When I was a kid, I use to watch a ton of Norfolk Southern trains.  Didn't know about the "Z-Train" name, thanks for sharing that info. Now is the Z-Train a name for ALL intermodal service (containers, trailers), or just certain ones?

Great Vid!!!! Those 3 loco units are made by EMD(ElectroMotive Diesel) & that is a Z-Train! It carries trucktrailers that haul priority freight like UPS & a mixture of single & double stack containers from overseas! These long trains travel long distance through out the country!! I probably seen a Z train in Virginia once like a few yrs ago!!! Btw, great catch!! 5 STARS!!!!!

It probably is... this set of RR tracks runs right next to US-1 in this area... US-1 is less than a block from this particular crossing.
