CSX on SBS

Several railroads have trackage rights on the SBS. This empty CSX coal train heads home to Kentucky behind a pair of GE Dash-8s for another load of low-sulphur coal for mid-western electric power plants.

The industrial mid-west these days is corn and cars. Auto maufacturers have moved south into Indiana, Kentucky and points south. Here we see a SBS long-distance local moving auto parts boxes south from Michigan to assembly plants in Kentucky.

corn, corn and more corn...

At harvest season, anything that can haul grain is pressed into service...

Lunchtime at the combine!
