CSX in Jackson Heights

CSX in Jackson Heights

Here comes the most unique engine on The CSX
East of Hudson roster. 8845, with its simple yellow painted nose that commands attention as a standout workhorse.

Brought down from Selkirk as Q701-02, this Y102-03 is in charge of a 21 car SPSX rail train, plus 2 spacers on each end, crossing The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway in Jackson Heights, Queens on Wednesday, April 3, 2013 at 0936hrs.

What makes this shot unique besides 8845 hauling a rail train? The only daylight moves to Fresh Pond occur once a week, on Saturdays, making this Wednesday move a special bonus. Oh, and an NS MOW hopper on CSX in Queens? I'll take it!
