I caught CSX power turning around at Conrail Shared Assets' Bulson Street wye in South Camden Saturday morning. CSX SD70MAC #770 was accompanied by GCFX SD40-2's #3061 and 3065 and Helm Leasing SD40-3 #6512. The GEC Alstom leasers were painted in First Union colors and the Helm unit had been rebuilt from an SD45.

Very nice photos Bob. That is a nice line-up of engines you caught there. Very colorful.

Great catch! I personally enjoy seeing the SD70MACs and I don't see them too often in the central and northern parts of New Jersey.

There was one CSX train I saw on the Lehigh Line last year that had a SD80MAC leading a SD70MAC with an eastbound train.

I just read on Yahoo Group SJRA that 700 was on CSAO MI-61 this morning from Millville to Camden, reported through Woodbury Heights around 1 AM.
