PASSING TRAINS PT4; PITT 27 PT1

The steady parade of trains continue through Hillsdale...

PITT 27 rolls under the bridge with a priority manifest bound for Pittsburgh.

Today's train is pulled by AC4400 8105, the Interstate heritage unit. A single 4400hp unit is sufficient for the short train. The trailing boxcar is a former UP car, now owned by TTX.

There are lots of 60' high-cube boxcars in the train, including these two Canadian cars; one for CN and one for rival CP.

There are also lots of empty centerbeam bulkhead cars returning west for re-loading.

Another 60' high-cube, this one an NS car, followed by a string of Corn Products corn syrup tank cars.
As usual, more of the train next week.
