Early August 2011 yeilded some interesting, and odd changes to the
Trenton Sub. HLCX and other leased units are starting to make a comeback to trains, and a
symbol change took place for some intermodals, but we'll get to that later.
First up in this video, it's
August 2,
2011, and the location is Woodbourne:
12:23 PM -
SEPTA Extra 820, a
Silverliner V test run heads west through Woodbourne. Silverliner V
Married pairs 820 and 819, 818 and 817, and 822 and 821 were part of this run. The train made a simulated stop at Woodbourne
Station before continuing west towards
Philly.
12:42 PM -
After working Woodbourne
Yard, Q418-02 notches up headed eastbound with an interesting lash-up of
CSX GP40-2 4402, HLCX
SD40-2 7190, and CSX CW44AH
586 for power. A GP40-2 leading a road freight now a days is a blessing, and the leaser topped it off.
