Thanks deeck....That explains it.  It's numbered for its auto racks I guess.  However, a search for that train # turned up pictures of CSX Q274 up in the Berkshires on the old B&A.

 As CSX does it abolishes and reuses train ID's the current "plan" for Q274 as mentioned was effective
March 18, 2017

I as understand it  the days of autorack set off/ block swap in Connellsville are numbered.
