SBD0180

            I have never been much of a fan of patch jobs.  Some railroads, SCL comes to mind, did an admirable job.  Some others, not so much.  CSX fell into that catagory.   We are near Pineville, KY on a steamy May 15, 1992.  Southbound CSX local freight C771 is doing some switching with GP40 No. 6584, Road Slug No. 2259 and GP40-2 No. 6468.   To the left is a southbound empty unit coal train of TVAX hoppers.  Leader SD45-2 No. 8970 was a bit hard to take.  By my calculations, it was former CRR No. 3612.  All evidence of the Clinchfield had been removed and the only markings that remained were the numbers on the side of the cab and a small CSXT.  A least it made the decision on which train to chase a simple affair.
