Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS Z4D - Motor Yd

NS Z4D (Eastbound Crude Oil) is getting a rear end buffer added on. He has an NS leader, 2 BNSF and a CSX unit in the lash up. Mighty rare to see a CSX unit mixed into a NS lashup. As I type (2:18PM) he is pulling ahead of the switch to back his train up into Track 42 to get his buffer car

Maybe it's because I see a lot more of these trains in the course of a week, but CSX units seem to show up on these bomb trains several times a month. Some have even had pure CSX power with our add on cab signal leader. What has been rare is the DME/ICE power that is very common on CSX lines through Cleveland but not on our line. Thanks for the HU, as this power will return in a few days.
