Eastern Railroad Discussion > Jacksonville FL Sightings 11/03/2014 including NKP and Warbonnet

Hello all, here are some shots from the Jacksonville, FL area shot back on November, 3rd 2014. The Nickel Plate had come in on the roadrailer and was being used for a yard job. NS 291 ended up having a Warbonnet leader and later that day, we ended up catching a move of the CSX F40s and business cars.

1: Job 2 with the 5109 is taking the Springfield Lead to head to the port while two other yard jobs wait. The Nickel Plate is being used for Job 1 while the 9387 was probably Job 4 about to take a cut over to CSX Moncrief.

2: Nickel Plate on Job 1.

3: This CSX yard job has just crossed the NS at the North end of Simpson Yard and is heading out the JS&W to work the industries along the way.  More to follow.
