Railfanning the CSX B&A in West Springfield, MA at Night 9-27-19

If anyone tells you everything runs at night on the CSX Boston & Albany (Boston and Berkshire Subdivisions) they are correct. At Front Street in West Springfield, MA between 8pm and 8 am we got a total of 11 trains which is almost every road train that runs on the B&A. While we mostly saw GEVOs we had two AC44 leaders which are now rare on the B&A due to them not having DPU capabilities and partially because of cab signaling.
0:36 CSX Q115 with CSXT 586 AC4400CW K5LA and CSXT 5272 ES44DC switches and then departs West Springfield Yard.
6:17 CSX Q436 with CSXT 3460 ET44AH K5HL leading and CSXT 3072 ES44AH rear DPU.
