The First Heritage To Lynch - CSX 1827 made a surprise visit to Lynch 3 on R614. If it hadn't been for my good friend Jeremy Williams, I would have never known it had came and gone. The Baltimore & Ohio scheme shines in the mid-day sun as Dragon pilots the unit and they begin loading. 1827 is the first Heritage Unit to make its appearance at Lynch 3 and is also the first Heritage Unit to grace CSX's roster. Good times.

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.
