Here we are a Cornwall Landing, where we see CSX Q439, a southbound mixed freight from Selkirk Yard to Hamlet, North Carolina, as it calls the signal at CP52, blows for the crossings at the Landing and passes a track foreman as he was waiting to come off the siding to go south.  Today's consist is GEVO ES44DC 5449, SD70MAC 4736, and MP15T 1207 with a 124 car mixed freight.  This is the second time in one week that I have seen 1207.  The other time was 4 days earlier on the 24th as it went through Union on the Lehigh/Trenton Line.  I don't know why it went to Selkirk (I can only guess for a 92 day inspection, which I don't know why couldn't have happened down in Jersey, but whatever), but it certainly turned around in a hurry.  Enjoy this cool ex-Seaboard locomotive, as well as the track foreman who was forced to sit in his hi-rail truck for a few southbounds to pass.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The video was taken on August 28th, 2009.
