CSX 160
Title:  CSX 160
Description:  I had pondered whether I just wanted to start going home after WE 221 or if I wanted to head back up to Greenwich since I would have a little more daylight to work with. I chose the foolish choice and followed the Wheeling up to Wellington and then back southwest to Greenwich. By this time, I only had about an hour and a half of shootable light. Unfortunately just as I was coming into New London an eastbound snuck up before I could get down to the trilight pair there in time, so I just followed CSX directly into Greenwich. And as things usually go, there wasnt a train until after sunset, but almost right after the sun had set, CSX I169 came off the Greenwich Sub and onto the Willard Sub, passing some of the trilights that still guard the diamond. That would end up being my final train of the day. I finally stumbled back into the house around 12:30 AM. One of the longest train days in my life. While the photo opportunities were well worth it, running on that much sleep was not, so next time, I think Ill consider staying in a hotel over the night instead of trying to make the drive back if I ever decide to be this crazy again! Still, while it had its ups and downs, I had a good day, and Im really glad I was able to get a train by that tilt board! Mission accomplished!
