Really like how you edited the video. Great work! Early Friday morning had a B240 go north. Empties going back to CN. Must be some great export demand for potash out of Tampa. Several of these have been running since at least October. Maybe using a different port so that's why they are routed this way?

I enjoy watching foreign rail videos, and I've often thought of how I would want to depict North American freight railroading at its best to someone form EU or Asia - and this would be pretty much spot on for depicting most non-mountainous areas. High tonnage per car, a long train, DPU usage, and very decent speed.

to get on a ship? So why Tampa instead of New Orleans or Baton Rouge or something? Date: 02/03/25 14:51 Re: CN potash train in Georgia Author: pedrop Great video. I saw a potash train in Idaho in 2011. At that time, it was pulled by UP SD9043.
