CSX doesn't really mean anything. The railroad has papers and the letters of the name mean nothing. Only letter that does, is T, which is transportation.
Wonderful stuff! I stood at that exact spot yesterday to shoot E725 and Q261 and about 100 people passed me on the way to the canal carrying yuppie equipment like backpacking stuff, mountain poles, a hundred water bottles each, and ridiculous tight fitting stuff. About half asked me if I was a photographer. (me with the digital camera around my neck)

Very cool to see Chessie videos from this era. Interesting rolling stock and no graffiti.
