CSX 7568 leads CN S709. ft. the atsf railfan and CN Hays

[@metronorthrailfan2244]

This train here was CSX B262 which is an empty molten sulfur train that was interchanged over to CN in Chicago and it's headed back west to the Ram River Gas Plant in Ram River, AB. CSX takes the empty sulfur tanks from Lee Creek, NC and it runs as B262 until its interchange point between CSX and CN in Chicago which at that point then becomes CN S709 for the rest of the trip. CN S708/CSX B261 would be the loaded counterpart to this train going east.

Yeah, a lot of interchanging. I am happy I caught this train. Thank you for the information about CSX B262 and CN S709!

No buffer car

What do you mean exactly?

[@Rails-Of-Illinois]

​@@railfanning_wisconsinMost unit trains like this usually has 1 covered hopper at each end, but sometimes they usually don't need them at the rear

[@railfanning_wisconsin]

Oh yes, that is right. The tankers are smaller. ​@@Rails-Of-Illinois
