Viewing Album:  Cincinnati Trip (1-21,28-12)
 
By:SDfourD Photography
Dates:1/21/2012 - 1/21/2012
Album Info:A week long trip across Ohio with Cincinnati as the main focus turned out to be one for the books, and well worth each penny. The weather was overcast for most of the trip until late afternoon in Toledo and then perfect blue skies in Chicago the following day. As my usual fasion, dont worry about being bored with widecabs, as CSX provided plenty of "that good stuff" whether it had CSX reporting marks or not. Enjoy shots from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky with a little bit of everything. Leave comments!

Q226
Title:  Q226
Description:  With the wrapped gold on the nose, and the thick frame stripe, the 7491 is a bit of an oddity in the YN3 crowd. Many of these spartan cab Dash 8's have gotten this treatment.

Description:  On my last trip to Toledo I shot the 8387 a few hundred feet away from where hte 8418 sits. I thought for sure that would be my last. Luckily enough, I was able to make it back to Ohio much sooner than I expected. And to find another YN1 which I havent shot yet, it was pretty neat. I was hoping it was the 8320, but hey, whose complaining.
