Rerouted - After a what is to be considered major derailment along the CC Subdivision around Livingston, Ky, the Cumberland Valley Sub welcomed reroute traffic with open rails. G740-20 is seen here in Loyall having just tied down for the next few days. After doubling their train back into yard tracks 8 and 9, it will await a future crew to take it on south to Kingsport and then on up the former Clinchfield on its way to Russel. Not to far behind it is a second grainer, running as G842-20.

He owns and operates Micah Turner Photography, as well as a YouTube media outlet titled RailfanMicahTurner, which both captures hidden arts of Eastern Kentucky’s beautiful landscape and wildlife, as well as their coal heritage.
