Canadian National 2816 northbound on PAL at Madisonville, Ky

May 5, 2018 – Canadian National 2816 leads a empty coal train (C729) under the belt at Cimarron Mine, on the Paducah and Louisville Railway as it approaches the crossing at Pond River Colliers Road in Madisonville, Ky, on it’s way to Armstrong Coal in McHenry, Ky to pickup a load. PAL will be running these unit coal trains off the CN for the next few weeks from Fulton, Ky up to McHenry Ky for loading. These movements are destined for a marine terminal in Convent Louisiana, where the coal will be loaded onto barges and ships. – #jimstrainphotos #kentuckyrailroads #trains #nikond800 #railroad #railroads #train #railways #railway #cn #cnrailroad #pal #paducahandlouisvillerailway #canadiannationalrailway
