Eastern Railroad Discussion > CSX #911 on a Coal Drag - 30 July 2021

Recently released from the shops after a minor side swipe incident, CSX #911 "Spirit of our First Responders" started working it's way east. Last night it came out of Grafton, WV leading a 115 car loaded coal drag (N769-27). In the early morning hours of the 30th, they would stop at Keyser, WV to set off their pair of DP units. The N769 would also be re-crewed with the N999-29 crew before departing Keyser for the short trip to the Cumberland, MD Terminal. The set-out and recrew took long enough that we were able to get the now recrewed train in some decent morning light.

1) and 2) #911 passing thru the east end of the Keyser yard.

3) On Bull Neck Curve at the Keyser, WV Industrial Park.

Hi DT
Great set of pics on the chase of CSX 911

Those of us east of Cumberland got skunked, as they added 5238 ahead of 911.  :-(
