Remarks & Notes 
Q251 has left newly reopened Winston yard in Lakeland, Florida, and is cresting the hill near downtown. The train is passing under one of the last Atlantic Coast Line cantilever signal bridges left anywhere. The SD70 and Dash 8 are pulling all they have to lift the train up the hill at about 20mph. These old signal bridges are not long for this world, as PTC compliance will bring them down soon. Lakeland is a great spot to watch trains ply the EX-Atlantic Coastline main, the A Line, on there way to and from central, south, and north Florida locations on CSX. Q251 is headed for West Palm Beach with racks for palm center, and cars for other towns down the line.
