While still on the River Line, we see CSX Q157, a northbound intermodal freight, operating as a Q273 due to a re-crew, in two separate areas; Newburgh, and at CP78 in West Park.  In Newburgh, we only stick around to see the engines and the first few double stacks, because we wanted to move ahead to catch it again elsewhere.  In the foreground, note the old crane, which had been used by back in the day in the Erie Yard to unload freight.  In West Park, we get to see the train in its entirety, as it chugs uphill at a speed of 17 miles per hour.  Unfortunately, the crew was not able to make out two separate time slips.  Q273's consist is C40-8W's 7344 and 7765, C40-9W 9036, AC60CW 600, C40-8 7636, and C40-8W 7379 with a very lengthy intermodal freight.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The videos were taken on January 12th, 2011.
