MGA 71 (1) |
| Description: |
A vintage caboose of the Monongahela Railway. Built in June 1949, this was one of a batch of ten cabooses purchased from the International Car and Equipment Company in Chicago. The railroad was formed in 1901 as a joint venture of the Pennsylvania Railroad and Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad. The line was based out of Brownsville and had various branches and extensions serving all the coal and coke mines of the area. It was merged on May 1, 1993 into Conrail. Then in the late 90's Conrail was split into CSX and Norfolk Southern which both still serve the town. Found in the parking lot of Bowman-Nemacolin Castle. |

| Description: |
A train of empty coal hoppers rounds the wye to Brownsville Junction Bridge, where it will cross from the Norfolk Southern Loveridge Secondary to the Norfolk Southern Mon Line and make another coal pickup. This train had to wait till an NS coal train came across the bridge, as any traffic coming off the Mon Line has first right of way. CSX 45 has now been repainted into the standard YN3/Dark Future paint scheme in 2012. |

CLCX 9698 (1) |
| Description: |
A very rare close look at the remote-controlled switcher used in Consol Energy's Alicia Yard. The locomotive is a CLCX (Chattahoochee Railroad Company) Alco S2. I'm told this was rebuilt with a Caterpillar motor and it seemed to pull the coal cars with no strain at all. This was built as HBT 18 in August 1948. Later became TEXC 4. I have discovered this has now moved on to Gilman, Illinois and is CRGX 9698. |

Consol Energy's Coal Dumper |
| Description: |
This amazing machine can pick up a whole railcar full of coal and rotate it upside down. The entire process takes only a few minutes. The empties get pulled out of here by a remote control locomotive and the machine pulls in another car, after a worker releases it from the rest of the train. The coal moves by several conveyors to barges on the Monongahela River where it will be shipped to various industries that need coal to operate. This facility is on Norfolk Southerns Loveridge Secondary. Taken from Alicia Road. (public property) |
