CSX 3003
Title:  CSX 3003
Description:  In the 3rd quarter 2015 issue of Lines South, a publication of the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line Railroads Historical Society, Mr. Doug Riddell has an excellent article about the CQ23-7s. He mentions that 3003 was the only BQ23-7 to be painted in the Bright Future paint scheme. Here's 3003 in that scheme at Fairfax, SC in 1991. It's in charge of a long freight running from Columbia, SC to Savannah, Ga. on the former Seaboard Air Line route, now the S line. The curved track in the foreground connects the S line with the Augusta sub route.

Five units north
Title:  Five units north
Description:  There's a surprise in there too-the 4th unit is a BQ 23-7. The spot I had there at Collier was excellent-nice little pull off to park in, shaded by pines, easy to sit and have a soda and read the paper. The only drawback was that the trains often came on you so fast you could not really set up. The afternoon was not so bad-the parking area was on the west side of the tracks-but the morning was a challenge, as you could not get over to the sun side fast enough. So this is a dark side shot. So it goes.
