Re: Columbus, OH - 2.20.23
Thank you for posting, CRD. I enjoy your Trip Reports.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
Re: Columbus, OH - 2.20.23
The train lead by NS 3664 is a WATCO Kanawha River Railroad coal train coming off the former K&M/T&OC/NYC/PC/CR/NS West Virginia Secondary Track now leased to WATCO. It has the standard power arrangement of 2 NS run through units and 2 WAMX 6000 series SD60s which are exNS units. The SD60s usually are on the headend between Dickinson Yard south of Charleston WV and Hobson Yard at Middleport OH. North out of Hobson it varies per train, either staying on the headend under MU or as a manned helper on the rearend of the train.
