WE 6989 (3)
Title:  WE 6989 (3)
Description:  A train that arrived early in the morning in Connellsville to pick up cars from CSX. The crew was told it would be a few hour wait so they left the train sit here at the interchange. It had four engines and two boxcars, supposedly to use as buffers for tank cars. This engine is former MJRX 6989, BNSF 6989, BNSF 7329, and built as CN 5041 SD40 in April 1968.

WE 6387
Title:  WE 6387
Description:  A short train heading into Connellsville with one boxcar for CSX. They kept the other boxcar as a buffer to pick up 20 tank cars from CSX. Two engines were on the rear. One might wonder why three engines are needed on a short train. It is because W&LE does pickups and setouts at various locations on a shift and sometimes more power is needed. WE 6387 is former LTEX 6779, BNSF 6779, and built as BN 6779 in May 1977.

WE 6358 (1)
Title:  WE 6358 (1)
Description:  The Wheeling and Lake Erie train 611 crew is working the west end of the Connellsville CSX Yard, dropping off some tank cars. The loaded lumber car was a buffer. It seems like every time the W&LE comes around here, poor weather comes with it. This SD40-2 is a former MMA 758 and was built as BCOL 758 in June 1980. The colors are a dead giveaway. Wheeling and Lake Erie acquired it during the Montreal, Maine, and Atlantic Railroad bankrupty when they were owed money and the MMA could not affort to pay it.

WE 6350 (5)
Title:  WE 6350 (5)
Description:  Running long-hood forward over Narrows road on the Connellsville City and Connellsville Township border, not far from MPC 1 on the Wheeling and Lake Erie line. This engine was acquired in January 2015 and replaced the previous 6350 which was grey. Built in April 1973 as CP 5659. Later became GCFX 3055 and CITX 3055. Though it has been owned by W&LE almost a year now, I am calling it new to differentiate between the previous 6350 engine.
