Hello all,

Here's a little something you won't see every day. CSX's own President Special (p933) is headed through Danville and on South later today. The (p933) had passed my train going north this morning to Chicago, and now it's already on its way back!!! It has two brand new engines, but I can't quite recognize what they are, maybe passenger engines, but they were in CSX dark future paint scheme. If anyone lives along the CSX mainline from Danville, IL to Nashiville, TN now is your chance to see CSX's own business train with the big wigs actually riding.

I now what you mean by the big wig fear. I'm just a rail fan but when the Wisconsin and southern brought there heads up here on a inspection trip, I was on my best behavior while taking photos.
