Caught a TTI coal drag today with three of the units on the point wearing the new blue and white paint scheme. With the sun playing hide-and-seek behind high clouds, light conditions were challenging but here is what I came home with.
[Eagle-eyed railfans might recognize #5911 as the TTI unit that burned rather spectacularly at Ewing, KY while still wearing its CSX colors. She looks great in the new livery.]
1) The three blue-and-white GE's (5902, 5911 and 5884) roar through a grade crossing south of Millersburg, KY.
2) This was an awkward shot...I really wanted to get those tractors in the frame, so I had to lean out across the farmer's fence while trying to avoid the utility poles just to my right.
3) Approaching historic downtown Carlisle, KY.
4) Blue sky, sunshine and a great looking tree all come together at this crossing near Myers, KY.
