CSX Q165 with Ex. AWVR Unstoppable 767 Meets Metro-North
Author: cornerfieldhobby

Well this was totally unexpected this evening. First I saw Q165 and I was shocked when I saw that the trailing unit was #9758 trailing 2nd, so that's why the photo came out the way it did, I just turned and took the photo without focusing. And then 1 minute later 165 met a CSX eastbound freight with Metro-North Commuter Railroad cars.

What's with the ConnDOT cars? Going to scrap? Rebuild?
