Taken on 04:05:2025.
On the morning of April 5th, 2025. I would catch word that CSXT #1836 was leading E410 solo after having to deal with the previous lead engine having a problem and needed to be taken off, and I would make plans to try and catch him at Brunswick, MD which I would arrive shortly before E410 got around noon. Shortly after, I would make a brief down the C&O canal bike path to check out the Brunswick deadline, getting shots of various locomotives being stored there and awaiting their fate, including a rare SD60M, and MP15AC.
Not long after checking out the deadline, Amtrak #41 the Floridian to Miami, FL would come highballing down main-2 heading Eastbound to Rockville, MD with a Phase VII P42 leading. About an hour later, M406-04 trash loads from Rocky Mount, NC to Cumberland, MD came running up main-2 with SD70AC #4717 leading.
*M406 was also recently abolished with T010 taking its place.*
A while later around 3pm CSX I135-05 would run through Brunswick with a double digit CW44AC in YN3C paint. I would also receive word from @R@RailroadScientist8768hat CSX M408-03 would have an SD60M dead in tow on her last run bound for K&K recycling for scrapping.
It would be a while till M408-03 arrived so I sat down at the old B&O depot to get off my feet for a bit.
While I was there CSX C782 would run by on main-2 and stop somewhere in the yard, presumably for a crew change and/or to wait for the line to clear. Then after a half hour of waiting, at 4pm M408-03 would arrive at Brunswick with SD60M #8768 dead in tow and would stop for a bit to work the yard before continuing Westbound to Cumberland. While M408-03 was stopped, CSX M370-03 ran by on main-2 with a pair of UP AC4400CWMs trailing going Eastbound. After both trains clear, G099 makes his way into the yard with YN2 CW44AH #378 leading. After that the line would be quiet for about three hours when after 7pm M369-04 clears Brunswick with a pair of freshly repainted units on the head end.
Then about a half hour of more waiting, CSX E781 clears Brunswick with YN2 CW44AH #506 trailing third with over 800 axles and a long train.
From listening to a scanner app on my phone, I would receive word that M415-05 would be dropping off more locomotives for the Brunswick deadline, and that M412-05 would have a MAC leading, so I decided to hang around for that.
About an hour later M412-05 would run by on main-1 with SD70AC #4561 leading. And then after waiting another hour, CSX M415-05 would finally arrive at Brunswick with SD70AC #4531 leading, and SD40-2 #8254 trailing with CM40-8 #7821, CW40-8s #7891 and #7917, SD50-3 #8568, and lastly SD40-2 #8446 for the Brunswick Deadline.
This ended up being a packed day full of really cool catches and I look forward to the fall for what else I can catch on the high iron. Thanks for watching.
Also special thanks again to @Rai@RailroadScientist8768 the info on M408-03 and the CSX Brunswick Deadline info. Be sure to check his channel out and maybe give him a sub.
