Railfan Pictures of the Week - 12/12/2004


CSX Wilsmere Yard Wilmington DE December 12 2004
 

On the way back north on the Santa train, saw some interesting sights in Wilsmere Yard. Considering how dirty the windows of the coaches were, was surprised how good these shots came out.

First up were some trash cars being loaded. The containers are presumably brought in by the low boy tractor-trailer in the background.

Next were a pair of US Air Force switchers and a pair of former Amtrak engines.
In a string of four engines were CSX RCPHG4 9161 .........
.... and CSX RCPHE4 9122, both of which probably work with .......
........ remote control push car CSX 9188.
