UVA Hospital |
| Description: |
This turned out to be a really cool place to shoot train pics. In the space of an hour this afternoon, 3 trains passed and 2 air ambulances landed. This was all while standing next to NS track 1 just south of the NS/CSX diamond. Not a boring site at all! |

Empty CSX coal train moving west |
| Description: |
Unable to hear the train or the UHF/VHF amatuer radio tuned to CSX and NS frequencies because of the helicoptor hovering 50 feet over my head, I almost missed this freight. My wife was even waving frantically in the car trying to get my attention over to the train. Real railfan huh? Is that another fan on the roof? |

Hospital Zone! No horns allow here |
| Description: |
Those horns are silent at this crossing, it's on hospital property. How would you like to be having laser surgery with one of these rumbling by? |

The platform you see in the lower right of the picture turned out to be a great place to shoot. |

Doublestack |
| Description: |
For those of you into freight cars. NS turns to the left here and CSX crosses from the right. Crossing is just over the hump, this side of that white fence. |

What a plain paint job. I guess I thought it would look different. I've seen better tag jobs (graffiti) than that fuzzy KCS. |

I got about a dozen shots of 2 choppers arriving and leaving while waiting for trains at this spot. I know they're not RR related but it made for a really cool afternoon. Almost as cool as waking up with an Acura upside down on your stoop. Haha! |
