UP 5459 leads the westbound Washington Fruit train on CSX outside of Kimmel Indiana. We caught three more trains on NS before leaving the Waterlevel Route and we came down here to Kimmel to catch this train. This is the last train we caught of the day. We had a great time at the show and a great time train watching. We hope to do this again soon!
