CSX I032-29 BLASTS NB through Hickox, GA @ 70MPH!

You want to talk about SPEED? Here's a video of Jacksonville-North Bergen pig train I032-29 FLYING through the unincorporated community of Hickox with 4 screaming AC traction GEs hauling the high priority intermodal train at the approved maximum track speed of 70mph! There aren't many places on the east coast where you can catch freight trains moving this fast, which makes CSX's Nahunta Sub from Jacksonville to Savannah unique. I knew I032 was going to be coming NB, so I took my time on the drive down US-301 out of Jesup to find a spot to catch him before getting to Folkston. As I was waiting, I decided to check the Folkston webcam to see if 32 was by Folkston, and when I rewinded it back to see he passed about 15 minutes before I stopped to set up here in Hickox, I was terrified that he had snuck passed me until I started hearing the horn in the distance. I sure wasn't disappointed with the results, as I032 came flying through like a bat out of hell. As always, enjoy the video!

Nice video! How did you know it was a 70mph?

[@ColumbiaAreaRailProductions]

Thanks for watching! The max permitted speed for intermodals on this line is 70mph, and this was doing close to it as I had to hold the tripod down to keep it from blowing back.

[@derricktherailfan]

That looks like 60mph but yeah it is 70mph!

[@ColumbiaAreaRailProductions]

Yep, thanks for watching!

[@fishingwithkeaton8384]

That’s 60 mph

[@ColumbiaAreaRailProductions]

Trust me, this was faster than 60mph. For reference, this is 60mph: ruclips.net/video/1glaaY7uWIc/видео.html

@@ColumbiaAreaRailProductions It doesn’t look quite 70. I’m gonna guess 60-65. Norfolk southern does 65 on the Pittsburgh line
