| Description: |
A mighty little GP38-2 pulling 100+ autoracks west out of the yard for some switching. It still gets the job done quite well for being 39 years old. This is former SCL 547 built in 1973. At times it is operated by remote control but here it had an engineer. |

I am still getting used to the sight of a locomotive functioning with no crew on board. But that is the case here. A remote-control GP38-2 doing its daily autorack chores on Track 4 in Connellsville. Signs of the early spring are everywhere here. |

Working the western end of the Connellsville CSX yard on a warm evening, as seen from the downtown Crawford Avenue Bridge. Here an engineer is being used rather than the remote control. The old crossties along the side are the remains of recent trackwork that went on here. |

| Description: |
Afternoon yard job working some autoracks on Track 4 near the sewage plant. After spending 2+ years exclusively in Connellsville, CSX 2547 disappeared at the end of 2013 and I have not seen it since. So this is one of my final photos of it. It has apparently moved onto another location. |
