Boston & Maine Jeep in Buckingham Branch territory |
Description: |
You would not believe the action at Doswell today. BBRR is moving cars with 2 engines and crews plus their track crew is replacing ties in this yard at Doswell. If their service today is any indication of the future, they're gonna need a bigger yard! |

Ahhh, we have a train |
Description: |
#5 has set out the cars. #3 is coupling the last set and almost ready to head out across the diamond. I must have looked at this pic a dozen times before I noticed the spare knuckles carried on the pilot. |

The work is never done |
Description: |
#5 went right to work moving more cars around after #3 pulled out of the yard. I do like the big roads but I've never seen them "hump" like these guys. I think all the hub-bub leading up to the BBRR running the Piedmont Sub is going to turn out to be a bunch of bunk. This is a first class operation! |

Crisp, cold morning on the Buckingham Branch |
Description: |
BB 5 sits in the yard. BB 7 and BB 3 have already left with their westbound train. Please excuse the graffitied box in background. It was not intentionally shot. I won't usually display vandalism. |

Description: |
CSX RF&P Sub in the background. They don't really tie up their locos. It's a power cord for a heater in the cab I think. |

Going in the hole again for another westbound empty coal train |
Description: |
BB 7 waited out the next train for 2 hours. That's insane, they could've finished their switching and been in Gordonsville before the next train got here. Blocks sure aren't efficent. |

Creeping up the siding. At least it was switched at each end. First Mars light I've seen on the east coast in 35 years. Last one I saw was on an ACL train in Florida. This is an ex Rio Grande GP 40. |
