Great shots! Any idea as to what the origin and destination of train 66E?

Heard elsewhere that CSX lost the Eddystone oil traffic trains that were K160-163. Someone else may be able to confirm.

Thank you!  Handed off by BNSF in Cicero, IL, 66E takes it to Eddystone, PA.

I was going to ask where they were headed with crude. After reading that I remembered that CSX lost the oil on the River Line (along the Hudson) Go figure NS is a much shorter but hillier route (read - needs helpers on the West Slope).
Thanks,
Go

Are crude trains to Linden, NJ back in NS (66Z/67Z prior to NS losing the business over the summer)?
