We found a nice puddle from that mornings rainfall to reflect the pair of engines a bit further down the line. |

| Description: |
I wanted to do a telesmash of the engines with the Saint Gabriel Catholic Church steeple as the backdrop. That ended up not working out the way I had hoped, which unfortunately made us miss the engines climbing the steep curved hill up to the interchange with CSX. I didnt anticipate them to go up the hill right away, so I assumed we would get both. I was wrong. But, we did get a shot of the engines crossing Western Avenue, even if it wasnt that great of a shot. |

| Description: |
L421 had more cars to pick up from Saunders Siding on the west side of town, and with the Indianapolis Subdivision being controlled by EC-1s, the CVNR had to wait for L421 to depart Connersville before getting permission into the yard. An hour later, the local finally left, and the CVNR crossed the Western Avenue bridge on CSX rails bound for the yard and their pickup. |

The colorful 5 unit consist passes the platform shoving to the interchange. I must say, I think this was the last thing any of us expected to see on a CSX mainline in 2025. |

| Description: |
The CVNR creeps down the hill and around the tight curve off CSX rails and back onto home rails for the short run north. The RMEX 4 was working hard. I dont think this interchange was built for handling 6 axle locomotives, especially this many in one go. The extra weight from the Camp Chase Geep was a must here for sure! |

A mad dash to the cemetery ended up proving useless, as the train beat us there, but the attempt wasnt a total loss, as it still gave us a good side look at the very colorful consist. |

We went down to 21st Street, where there is a large tree that hangs over the tracks in the IV Tech parking lot there, which is where we caught the train next. |

The CVNR parallels Western Avenue as it passes the Connersville Pizza King. I was hoping to try to incorporate the sign here, but it is almost impossible to do that with a northbound move thanks to a tree that is growing right in front of it. |

The train comes up to the intersection of Western Avenue and 30th Street. I should have taken us a bit further down, but I had committed to turn by the time the train had reached the crossing, and traffic was horrendous and I wasnt able to change my mind. |
