CSX M582-05 (Hamlet,NC-Nashville,TN) is tired down on the number 2 main at Lookout waiting for an outbound crew to go on duty to take the train into Wauhatchie Yard and begin work doing pick-up and set-off. With no surprise the power desk hasn’t even pulled CSXT 4568 out of service to get a new number board and fix the broken fuel gauge. What made the event even more comical was the outbound crew boarded the train and found out the lead unit was out of fuel. So now with only one motor online the crew limp M582 into the yard where the crew picked up M584 motors and utilized them to get train to Nashville.
Railroading is a 24 hour a day business, that never sleep. From sunset to sunrise the railroad must run. These image are taken by some of the best rail photographer out their.
