CSX Q-601
Title:  CSX Q-601
Description:  CSX train Q-601 was on its way from the railroad’s GENTILLY YARD to the Union Pacific’s AVONDALE YARD via the Norfolk Southern, and it was stopped at Bayou St. John behind NS No. 393. It was powered by GP60 5777 (ex-SSW 9675) and SEVEN yellow UP units: SD40-2s: 3602, 3571, 3248, 3839 and 3656 with C40-8 9135 and C40-8W 9426. Because there were more eastbound trains than westbound, it was not unusual for trains moving from the CSX to the UP to have two sets of power such as this.
