Remarks & Notes |
CSXT's CC Sub runs 176 miles from the Cincinnati Terminal near Spring Lake to Dortha near Corbin, KY. The railroad cuts thru some rugged mountain area south of Berea, KY, as they cut thru the Daniel Boone National Forest.
A southbound coal train is back on the move with the Crooked Hill helpers attached now east of Perth. Both crews now will tackle the the mountain grade up into East Bernstadt. This area is pretty remote and runs along the Hazel Patch and Altamount Creeks as they wind their way towards Corbin. This load has stopped twice in the last 38 miles to get 2 different sets of helpers put on the climb 2 different grades. |
