Description: |
A mad dash to the cemetery ended up proving useless, as the train beat us there, but the attempt wasnt a total loss, as it still gave us a good side look at the very colorful consist. |

IBCX 4618 |
Description: |
The CVNR creeps down the hill and around the tight curve off CSX rails and back onto home rails for the short run north. The RMEX 4 was working hard. I dont think this interchange was built for handling 6 axle locomotives, especially this many in one go. The extra weight from the Camp Chase Geep was a must here for sure! |

IBCX 3494 |
Description: |
Knowing the crew would be working for a bit, TJ and I opted to grab some lunch at Hardees down the road. We made our way back to the station and met up with my friend Noah there and waited on the train. Along with the IBCX waybills, the crew also had four plastic pellet hoppers to pick up for their sole customer in the old cabinet warehouse on the north side of town. Thanks to new ownership, new business has quickly found its way to a line that got almost 100% of its revenue from storage cars. After about 45 minutes worth of work, the train slowly reversed back to the interchange; four cars and all five engines in tow. |

Description: |
L421 had more cars to pick up from Saunders Siding on the west side of town, and with the Indianapolis Subdivision being controlled by EC-1s, the CVNR had to wait for L421 to depart Connersville before getting permission into the yard. An hour later, the local finally left, and the CVNR crossed the Western Avenue bridge on CSX rails bound for the yard and their pickup. |

IBCX 4618 |
Description: |
I wanted to do a telesmash of the engines with the Saint Gabriel Catholic Church steeple as the backdrop. That ended up not working out the way I had hoped, which unfortunately made us miss the engines climbing the steep curved hill up to the interchange with CSX. I didnt anticipate them to go up the hill right away, so I assumed we would get both. I was wrong. But, we did get a shot of the engines crossing Western Avenue, even if it wasnt that great of a shot. |

RMEX 4 |
Description: |
I was hoping to grab L421 on the bridge over Western Avenue, but we struck a friendly conversation with the CSX MTO at Connersville, and it departed during our chat. After chatting, I got a text from the conductor on the CVNR that they were headed up toward the interchange with the RMEX 4 and one of the Camp Chase GP9RMs. The RMEX 4 is the ex-MAW 4, a GP7u still wearing its ATSF bluebonnet scheme, and is currently the only operating locomotive on the CVNR. However, since the consist was a bit heavy to bring back, and the interchange between the CVNR and CSX is a bit steep, they needed a little extra weight, so one of the project units was added, which would make an already eye-popping consist even more mind blowing. We worked over to the CVNR, and sure enough the two units were slowly making their way toward the interchange. We grabbed our first shot at 18th Street. |
