North & South
This RF&P unit just days away from being absorbed
by CSX still wears its letters in POT Yard which
is also soon to be closed. The RF&P was a North
South road in the stricktest sense. Road engines
were not turned at each end, instead many units
had dual controls and two sets of horns, while even
numbered units faced North and odd faced South!
Family
This RF&P switcher sits outside the roundhouse in
Russel, KY on the old C&O with some other members
of its new family. An old GP16 in Family Lines
and a GP30M in the early CSX scheme
Lost
This RF&P GP40 has lost its name and has been
renumbered into CSX while passing through
Clifton Forge, VA on the old C&O.
New Home
Working the John Amos power plant outside
St. Albans, WV this nameless RF&P unit is
returning with empties destined for the coal
fields of southern West Virgina. This unit without
dynamic brakes must find its new life challenging.
