Local passing the Chessie Caboose |
| Description: |
An unusual Saturday working of Busch Local L215 is seen running lite engine eastbound toward Newport News Yard, passing the recently restored Chessie System caboose at Lee Hall, Virginia. The C27A bay window caboose was built by Fruit Growers Express in June of 1980 and was eventually renumbered to CSXT 900066 in 2002. CSX retired this caboose in April 2018 and was in the process of soliciting bids to scrap it when I stepped up and coordinated the donation to the Lee Hall Trains Station Foundation. The Foundation restored the caboose to its original appearance and placed it on display next to the 1881 C&O Depot. |

East Washington Railway |
| Description: |
This 45 Ton diesel switcher was built by General Electric in December 1946 for the East Washington Railway which operated near our Nation's Capital serving the community of Seat Pleasant, Maryland, and the Benning Power Plant. In 1970 the locomotive was sold to Pinto Island Metal Company in Mobile, Alabama. Republic Locomotive Works rebuilt the switcher in July 1987 and it was sold to Cogentix Power Plant in Hopewell, Virginia. The locomotive operated there until the plant ceased burning coal in 2019. The Old Dominion Chapter, NRHS, acquired the locomotive and relocated it to Hallsboro, Virginia, where it was restored to its original appearance. Since the Chapter already owns RF&P 101, this locomotive became ODCX 2101. Seen on 28 September 2024 giving train rides during the Old Dominion Chapter Open House. |
