The Sunset Limited |
Description: |
Hot on the heels of P091 is P001. The limited did not stop at WPK, as this was a ferry move to bring the cars down from the Superliner facility at Sanford to Orlando. Unknown at the time, but thanks to a major Hurrican just over a month later, the Limited's days in Florida are numbered. |

Scorching the rails |
Description: |
A veteran SD40-2 leads an AC44CW in run 6 with a Southbound stack train from Waycross. The sound they made as they screamed by was great! The aging GE was really living up to its reputation with all that smoke. |

I had to make a double-take when I saw "Furby" coming by. This engine seems to know where I'm going to be railfanning, whether it's at Folkston, or up in VA with family, and makes an appearance. Here she leads A772 across Main St. |

CSX 4306 |
Description: |
For quite a while it seemed the Clearwater Sub was to be the domain of the ex-Reading Company GP39-2s. That was all we saw for almost a year. Here CSX 4306 (ex-Reading Company 3401) spends a lazy Summer afternoon at the Clearwater Crew Office. When I was younger, this site was a junction between the SCL's former Atlantic Coast Line Trilby-St. Pete main, and former SAL's Richmond, VA to St. Petersburg main. From here South, CSX uses the old ACL, and from here North, the old SAL. Nothing remains of the old crossing and connecting spurs. The lines themselves in the opposite directions are now paved over as the Pinellas Trail. |
