Trains on google street view.

Can't have signals without railroads, so talk about your favorite locomotives, railroads and any other (non signal) railroad related stuff.

YN2 Mania in Music City, Tennessee.

Since this image was taken (April 2009)
CSX 152 (GE AC44CW) has been repainted into CSX's YN3B paint scheme.
CSX 507 (GE AC44CW) has remained unchanged
CSX 6918 (EMD GP40-2) has been repainted into CSX's YN3 paint scheme.
CSX 2318 (Road Slug) has been repainted into CSX YN3's paint scheme.

Judging by the condition of the paint on 6918 and 2318, the top was corroding in a bad way. Which probably prompted CSX to repaint them.

What's this?

Two CSX switcher brothers (1111 and 1112) (Both EMD SW1500's) grouped together with a caboose in the same location.

Actually a Jordan Spreader is a piece of snow fighting equipment, although as of late it has been used on other MOW assignments.

The GEs are AC44CWs, actually. UP has their C44-9Ws (and C41-9Ws, IIRC) in their 9000 series like CSX and NS.
They/Them for me, please.
