It was a beautiful morning in Pensacola. Q602-11 had made a mostly nocturnal run from Mobile-Pensacola over the PD and M&M Subs. He got a new crew, and the train was ready to leave town around 8:0... (more)

M736 with a sweet leader for 2017 slides down the west track just north of Downtown Pensacola. I wasn't planning on stopping for anything, but when 736 toned up with the 8576 I turned downtown to ... (more)

With the news that the P&A and Tallahassee Subdivisions would be put up for sale I had been trying to get as many shots as I could of the line before it was not under CSX ownership any longer. Wit... (more)
