From March 19 to 21, 2010, I was trackside along CSX's busy former NYC Waterlevel Route and NS' former Nickel Plate Road mainline. The action was pretty intense, and some good photos and video clips were caught! Enjoy!

That pair of UPs have been going back and forth on 22/23K. My father (steamcrane) got them a few weeks ago. Last week I saw them on 22K with 2 TFMs, 2 KCSs, and a CP. I also caught the 23K seen here.

The UP 9659 & 7602 have been frequenting the 22K and 23K. Also, not long ago, there were a pair of UP SD70M's doing the same. I'm not minding this UP power. They have been showing up on 22K, 23K, 205 and 206 a lot recently. An SD9043AC just went east on 206 a couple days ago. Interesting stuff!
As for the TFM's, KCS's and CP's, they were the first 4 out of 10 deliveries going to the Pan Am Railway.
