Metro North and CSX racing at Ossining
Metro North train 891 and CSX train Q703 arrive at the northbound Ossining platform simultaneously. Train 891, the 10:02 express to Poughkeepsie, is lead by Genesis #216, and is hauling 7 cars. Train 891 comes to a stop to let off passengers. CSX K275, the "Trash Train," is being pulled by CSX SD40-2 8832 (ex Conrail) and CSX SD40-2 8840 (ex Conrail, and still in Conrail colors!) They are hauling 34 flat cars with containers filled with trash on them (I might add that the train smells to high heaven). Q703 continues at a fast speed (about 45-50 MPH) throughout the video. The video was taken at 10:47 PM on Monday, September 17th.
