Catching lashup’s like this anywhere on the CSX Keystone Sub or sandpatch is quit rare. Everyone has seen matching BNSF and even UP here with some frequency! but SOO well thats almost never until yesterday!
Enjoy, Tom
In a similar line of thinking, while SOO units are still fairly prevalent up here in east-central Minnesota, CSX locomotives are rather rare. The first time I went out to the Sims Rd. grade-crossing of the BNSF Hinckley Sub after I moved into my new house, I was lucky enough to see a southbound all-CSX lash-up hauling a mixed freight. I assumed it was a BNSF freight, and not a UP or CP job on trackage rights. That was quite the surprise.
where i live in eastern north dakota seeing matching soo lashups is still common with the ocasinal milwaukee road locomotive. csx, ns, and all bn(without the bnsf markings) locomotives are rare in my part of the state. big boy
I have seen matching SD60 SOO units here on the Hamlet/ Bostic NC line about three years ago.
