  • Bit of info for those interested.

    These trains are Wheeling & Lake Erie Coke trains from Mingo Junction Ohio to Sparrows Point, Baltimore. They usually make this trip once a week. The SD40T-2s are W&LE owned and operated. Many of the Wheelings Management is fromer DRGW. Hence the tigerstripes on the W&LE locomotives. The two tunnelmotors are 2 of 4 W&LE locos that still retain their heritage paint. The other two are GP40-3s, #302 and #303.

  • @c54driver - thanks for the info! it's always nice to get some interesting details like this!

  • So. Not. Fair. They should be in Colorado! I'll just have to be glad they still retain their paint scheme. I hope they stay that way. Awesome video!

  • I think I will have to put this in the Top 5 Greatest Catches I have seen so far. Great video.

see all
