The most boring CSX train ever?

I saw the engine parked at Orlando Kaley Yard with its light on, and what stood out was it looked like a black color scheme. As it headed my way, I wondered if this was a Seaboard Coast Line engine that escaped the paint shop. Not sure what to think, other than maybe a number of units are in the repair bay and this is a reserve. Here's an Easter Egg. At the end of the vid, the cars parked on the siding between Drennan and Pineloch are passenger cars for the Ringling Brothers Circus!

Nice catch by you too! The have been parked there for at least three weeks. I took some shots of the cars parked. The Ringling Bros. Circus will be at the Amway Arena in a few days, and there are maybe 20 or so sleeper/passenger cars on the siding between Pineloch and Drennan.

I think they have been there longer cause I drive by and see them on orange ave.

Perhaps they were brought up after Thanksgiving? I know in distantsignal's vid he showed the train arriving in Tampa after Thanksgiving, so I wonder if they split off a portion and left them here since we are likely the circus' first stop? I watched a number of people with laniards on walk past my area while waiting for 5967 to pass by, and I assume they worked on the train.

What a tragedy of a video. Even the switch is misaligned! The only thing worse would be if a head and shoulders popped up over the building and this was somebody's layout! : ) Just kidding of course. Did anyone count the cars?

[bkpigs]

I thought it was actually comical. Although as smartassstevie said they are probably to haul maintainence equipment, you can see the rails on them at the end. I think they should have put a box car on the end just for laughs.

[smartassstevie]

those cars that are being pukked are for carrying railroad maintenance equipm,ent for either rail gangs or tie and surffacing gangs.

It was not all that boring as i imagined
