In addition to setting out and picking up cars, #206 shuttles power. Today, they dropped one & picked up three, resulting in this set. While advertised to run Mon-Fri in conjunction with #105, i... (more)

Under Cemex remote control, with that hopper behind the 430, the Unit Train is unloading into the late afternoon. Nice set of power. Recent painting & dispersal of the GE fleet has seemingly for... (more)

It really isn't a surprise the 508 remains on the roster while the two SD70M-2 are gone....but not entirely forgotten.

#55 was set aside in the fall of 2013 for repaint, but business required it to hit the road unrepainted. A "few weeks" became a full year as it went into late 2014 this way. Newer arri... (more)

The two GP7 are back together again. #57 now sports pilot stripes and a more conventional set of number boards.

#206 sails by the Unit Train unloading at Cemex's City Point Yard. It technically is Cocoa, which has its "welcome to" sign just behind the engines on US 1, but has always been referred... (more)

Probably the biggest change to Florida railroading in my lifetime is this, the newly built extension from FEC to Orlando International Airport. Not the kind of trains I'd imagined pacing, or bein... (more)

There are certain locomotives I have encountered their entire existence with regularity and the FGAR SD70M-2 quartet fall into that category. From their delivery to FEC in 2008 and lease to CSX i... (more)
