Heritage Week:

Join us for a remarkable railfanning week as we capture two stunning CSX heritage units in action! First, marvel at the RF&P 1836 locomotive leading the B631 Ethanol Train, a sight that blends historical reverence with modern railroading prowess. The second treasure of the week is the Western Maryland 1852, brightly painted and commanding the lead of the M457 mixed freight headed to Taft Yard.
These heritage units are not just locomotives; they are rolling pieces of history that celebrate the legacy of their respective railroads. The RF&P 1836 honors the Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad, known for its strategic linking of major cities along the Eastern Seaboard. Meanwhile, the Western Maryland 1852 pays tribute to the Western Maryland Railway, noted for its vital role in connecting Baltimore to the raw materials of West Virginia’s mines.
*Western Maryland 1852 Factoid:*
The Western Maryland 1852 sports a color scheme that echoes the vibrant identity of the Western Maryland Railway. This line was known for its significant contributions to the transportation of coal, freight, and passengers, weaving through the scenic landscapes of the Appalachian region before becoming part of the CSX in the late 20th century.
This video captures the essence of rail heritage and the enduring spirit of these historic lines. Whether you're a dedicated railfan or a newcomer to train spotting, these captures are sure to inspire awe and appreciation for the art of rail transport.
