CSX 6467, 2203, 6502 (2)
Title:  CSX 6467, 2203, 6502 (2)
Description:  Work train D060-09 doing a rare movement on the W&LE connecting track in Connellsville. They ran out of room to keep the train in the CSX Yard so it was kept on this first mile of track overnight. Here it is seen overlooking the Little League field, as the train waits {o get permission to get back onto the mainline and lay rails.
