New Years day, 2011, Watching Trains, Ashland, VA

I arrived in Ashland ahead of the Northbound Northeast Regional from Richmond and just as a southbound CSX freight comes through.
The next on the schedule was the southbound Palmetto 89, led by engine number 24.

Next on the schedule was the both the northbound Silver Meteor 92 and the southbound Carolinian 79. 92 came through while 79 was in sight. Unfortunately my camcorder had turned off due to a bump and by the time it came back on, so I missed the Silver Meteor. I did get the Carolinian.

A return to Ashland for supper, allowed me to see this CSX freight in the twilight.
