Those hopper cars make better time than Amtrak. A lot of bouncing around over the crossings. Nice video even if I did cheat and fast forward through all of the hopper cars.

LOL! I've gotten previous complaints that I don't video entire trains...no pleasing everyone on TO.com...LOL.

NICE, NICE, NICE. Thanks for showing all the train and giving the details on amount of cars, loaded or empty.

Excellent video, like the whole trains with the captions! Good to see some KY coal powering at least part of the nation!

What a nice place to watch trains and thanks for all the info on the O-D pairs. I had heard that some of the Florida power plants had got off coal but it appears many are still using coal and when the Folkston railcam was live a few weeks ago I saw some there. When I visited there over a decade ago I'd say there were five loaded and five empty coal trains per day. And it is interesting as you posted that a train from Blacksville, WV is going to Florida. That is an old PC/CR location, but high quality coal.

Splendid video! I vote also for the full-train view!

Seems that CSX has changed Harrison's feelings against DPUs.
