CSXT 5364 |
Description: |
CSXT 5364 and 5217 lead the Southbound empty Juice Train across the Manatee River and into Bradenton. O854 is the symbol of the Juice train between Yeoman Yard (Tampa) and Bradenton and back. O854 leaves Yeoman Yard around 6am, arrives in Bradenton usually around 7:30am and spots the empties in the yard at the Tropicana facility and then doubles the loads out of Bradenton yard and heads back to Tampa usually by 10am. At Yeoman, the train is re-crewed and heads North as Q740. Today, there was an issue with the mainline switch at Big Bend, and the train was delayed about an hour and a half, so the Southbound is seen crossing the river in good light, rather than the usual darkness. |

CSXT 5217 |
Description: |
CSXT 5217 and 5364 lead the Northbound O854 Juice Train across the little Manatee River swing bridge near Ruskin, FL. Note the bridge still bears the name of it's builder and former operator, the Atlantic Coast Line. The juice is running about an hour late on this clear, cool day in February due to some switch problems on the inbound run to Bradenton. The train will re-crew at Yeoman Yard in Tampa and head North as Q740. |
