Once my regular railfanning grounds, I hadn’t caught a train in Sinks or Berea for a decade or better. Other life’s work had me in the area though and I used the time to see what all has changed over the years. A substantial amount it turns out, more than should be described in this short clip. I did manage to catch this coal bucket northbound at Sinks by chance, and decided to try to get ahead of it at Berea as I returned home. I managed, barely, and both locations are combined here.
Motive power of CSX 3081, 3119, DPUs 553, 827.
