CSX 293, 997, 478, 262   Contributor's Pick!       
A set of four helper locomotives passing west over the iconic stone bridge at the Youghiogheny River and Indian Creek. #293 was a recent repaint at the time. These helpers were based out of Connellsville Yard, but manned helper service has now been phased out on the Keystone Subdivision. CSX now runs mid-train Distributed Power Units or DPUs. Something that western railroads had already been doing for many decades.
