    W&LE 3067 was seen idling on the end of the Wheeling and Lake Erie line in Connellsville, waiting to get onto CSX. It was joined up with W&LE 6316 and W&LE 3073. This engine is an ex-Union Pacific SD40-3 built in December 1966. The background lighting for this was created by the lights of the Connellsville Municipal Authority (a large sewage treatment plant). Normally the light does not appear so bright at night but the deep snowcover reflects all the light back into the air. "Night Landscape" setting with about -0.7 EV was used with this. Date was 01/06/2010.

    W&LE 6315, 7375, and 7377. Three SD40-2's struggling mightily up the grade leaving Connellsville. Their engines were roaring so loud, a horn would have not have been necessary. This is at the Narrows Hill Road crossing. W&LE 6315 is a former Wisconsin Central, and the blue ones behind are former GATX Capital Corporation, but built as Missouri Pacifics in 1975.

    W&LE 6349 is an SD40-2 formerly owned by the Kansas City Southern, the oldest (1887) and smallest Class One Railroad still around. This bridge was opened to rail traffic in 1933 for the Pittsburgh and West Virginia Railway, In 1964 the line was leased to the Norfolk and Western. Then in 1990 it got leased to the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway, which is the train you see here. After crossing this bridge the train enters the rugged Creek Hills area and crosses several more bridges before going over the much higher Banning Bridge over the Yough River. For anyone interested in railfanning this bridge, it takes approx. 30-40 minutes for a train to reach Chaintown after leaving Connellsville.

    W&LE 6353 is an SD40-2 former Kansas City Southern that has received a new blue and yellow paint job for the movie "Unstoppable" starring Denzel Washington and Chris Pine. Earlier last year it had the KCS gray color. The blue and yellow color scheme was used for the fictional "Allegheny and West Virginia Railroad" in the movie. Seen in the CSX Connellsville Railyard. This was one of three W&LE engines on layover in the yard after bringing in a coal train. They were waiting for a train of empties to be assembled to take back to their home yard in Green Tree.
