Santa Fe and UP on a CSX train!
Posted by Dough on Tuesday, December 16, 2003 6:07 PM
Several people here have been talking about UP's on CSX trains. Well today I saw UP 8473, BNSF 6863, and UP 5050 on the old Gainsville Midland (now CSX) line in Georgia.

What was really crazy was that the Santa Fe was still in its original paint scheme. This is the first and probably the last time that I'll see this perticular paint scheme, being this far out of their territory. And to have UP and BNSF together was kind of interesting as well.

Does anybody know how many engines are still in the old Santa Fe paint? I still see Conrail blue frequently but they are getting more and more rare. I just don't know that much about the western railroads.

I took lots of pics, but I still have to get them developed.[;)]
