CSXT K940 w/ex-LMS 0701 |
| Description: |
Once in a while, we get something borrowed and/or blue in the rock train pool from Miami. This unit was the only LMS unit to have a four digit 700-series number, 0701. Seen here at Highland Avenue northbound on #1 track. This spot makes for good morning light northbound shots and, finally, has been cleared of dead telephone poles that made shooting here tricky up until now! (Wish I could go back to 2000/2001 when the ex-EMD lease fleet was on this job & make better shots here) |

CSXT K940 w/ex-LMS 0701 |
| Description: |
Until recently, shooting this far back at Highland Avenue on the A-Line doubletrack north of downtown Orlando wasn't possible unless you could live with telephone poles in the foreground. Many areas with dead lines have recently been cleared & thankfully, this is one of those areas. The branch line leading into the bottom of the shot is coming off the #2 track & used to offer enough gap space between poles to get two motors in a shot if the train was on #2 track, the spur used to serve a lumber yard off Virginia Avenue & is the last piece of the line to Oviedo still in place. Now, the spur is just used for MofW. At one time, the local used to "clear up" here for opposing traffic. |

| Description: |
Right at the last rays of daylight, Q456 is moving off of the Taft Ramp loop (unusual!) towards the mainline. 7919 is the last locomotive on CSX's roster to wear LMS paint. |
