My first railfan video in Columbus (my home town). Two CSX AC4400CWs pull a coal train north (railroad direction west) through the south and near west side of Columbus. First near the site of Frankfort St. tower where CSX's Russel, KY-Toldeo, OH line parallels NS's West Virginia Secondary and then at LM Cabin and crosses NS's Columbus-Cincinnati Line and West Virginia Secondary begins. There also used to be a tower here that was open as late as 2002.
I bar-tend right there at the Spaghetti Warehouse. Had the conductor from the local "beer train" come down to get take out from me once!

I used to like watching trains over the Whittier St. overpass, pictured at the beginning, it's a bad neighborhood, though. The AC4400s on the coal train reminded me of CSX's famous mountain subdivision in WV. Thanks for the video!
