CSX Q455 Thru Taft Ramp         
Late-running Q455 did something it rarely does, bypassed Taft Yard for Taft Ramp, swinging in at the TOFC signal & running around the loop. This way, they dropped their auto racks on Ramp 4 & only had to pull out into the siding & back into Taft Yard. The tail end of Q178 can be seen to the right of 7333. As of the date of this photo, approx 37 CSX motors were left in CR paint. (NOTE: 12/10-7333 is now in YN3 paint) 7333 is ex-CR 6134 & part of the "dedicated" pool of power that Waycross regularly sends in & out of FL. 7496, third out, already met the paint booth & is ex-CR 6042.
