Classic EMDs On the Big Sandy
Author: CO3124

Some classic EMDs, in the form of a GP38-2 and a GP40-2, are seen leading empty coal train eastbound as it heads for Pikeville, Kentucky. This video was taken at Kavanaugh, Kentucky along the Big Sandy Subdivision at mile post CMG14.6. I believe this was an E426 however with the radio as garbled as it was. I could only make out what the number of the lead engine was on the scanner.

Nice video and perfect uniformity of a unit train.

120 cars!  And only a GP-38 and GP-40 to do all the work.  B-B axle power takin' care of business--you don't see that very often any more!
