RJC 5544 |
Description: |
Tuesdays and Fridays the RJ Corman interchanges with the CSX at Ansonia and while I was shooting the local on CSX, I could hear a horn in the distance signifying they were on their way up fron Greenville. Sure enough, I found them a few miles south of Ansonia and made it to the decrepit distant signal with CSX for my sole shot. Recently, RJC moved a "new" Geep to the property to replace the GP20 that had been on this operation for years due to it blowing out its guts. While it is sad that the GP20 is gone, Ill take this GP38-2, especially since it faces north. Both the GP16 and 20 that worked this job together faced south. |

I sat in Elgin for about an hour and a half with nothing happening. Crews go OD out of Celina around 7 AM, but it was obvious no one was going to show up here. I did begin hearing crackles over the RJC frequency though, so I knew something must be happening in Celina today. Sure enough, as I got into town, I found WL30 heading east with both engines bracketing two box cars. I set up my first shot by the bracket signal at Villa Nova. |

WL30 passes the water tower on the east side of Saint Marys. RJC 5561 recently replaced RJC 1731 on this operation. While the GP38-2 definitely isnt as cool as a GP16 with an RS3L, it is clean, and Ill take that. |

About 2 miles west of Buckland lies another bracket signal. Honestly could not have asked for a better set up for it. I shot this train back in 2021, and the head on the bracket was facing the tracks. Someone has gone up there and turned it the other direction. |
