CP on CSX?
Author: KY_Railfan

Lately I've seen CP unit trains on the CSX Texas sub. Twice this week I've seen CP engines pulling all CP covered hoppers east on the Texas sub. Anyone know the story on this?

It also called the L,H & Stl sub. It runs between West Point, KY (just west of Louisville) to Henderson, KY.

They are paying back horse power hours.

Those are CSX K883 from Chicago to Louisville. CP run-through power accompanies it. At Louisville, the power is usually assigned to Q272 and sent north to Detroit to be returned to CP.
