Freight, Locals, and Rock trains.
9/26/00, 16:00 FEC 290 North Palm Beach yard.
I had just got off work and drove straight to the yard when this overloaded
rock train showed up. This same consist got off easy the next day by being
assigned the pigs from 101.

With the sun behind the horizon, this freight finally comes out of
the hole after meeting 101.
9/29/00 12:30, Local SB, Hobe Sound.
All good things must come to an end; it was time to go home. I followed
the mainline North of West Palm to Titusville. This is my first find of
the trip home. Railroading the old fashion way, L.H.F.: Long Hood Forward.
Local West Palm Intermodal port.
