Where The L&N Meets The Clinchfield

By: Micah Turner


Description

Where The L&N Meets The Clinchfield - In what I call a fantastic outcome of shots, CSX 1850 leads M652 across the old Clinchfield N&W overpass in Saint Paul, Virginia. I have seen dozens of images staged here with various units of all types, yet this was the first time we had caught anything in Saint Paul in general. The closest we had came was amidst our chasing of the Santa Train, where we passed through. Until the Clinchfield Heritage Unit is done, and runs this way, this will have to do for now. Hey, wouldn't this be Family Lines?
