CSX 8052
Title:  CSX 8052
Description:  The second loco is this SD40-2 EMD unit rolling past a background of vintage passenger cars assembled for the annual New River Fall Foliage fan trip to Hinton, WV, leaving the next morning. We finally had tickets to ride this trip - glad we did as the future of the New River Gorge fall trips appears in doubt.
