Eastern Railroad Discussion > Another X100 today on CSX New Castle Sub

X-100 by Ravenna, OH. MPBG110.5 at 1015 today west bound, had a GP40-2 leading a GE about a mile of mty well cars. Also right on his block is Q275 with a almost untouched B&O 2 bay covered hopper with Dome logo about 20 cars back from the engines, I did not see it in time to catch a picture of it.

Saw the X100 by Alexandria, VA around 1630 yesterday. Power was CSXT 6249 and CSXT 7899. I figured the GP40-2 would get cut off at Cumberland. By my count, he had 115 car lengths, so just shy of 6000 ft.
