A southbound CSX I025 passes over Gum Lick Trestle, just north of Kelly, Kentucky on the Henderson Subdivision on September 2nd, 2022. This is cropped shot from my Air 2S Drone and shows the many autoracks running behind CSXT 3071 loaded with Teslas. I then moved the drone off the tracks before the train arrived at its location. The “Gum Lick” name comes from the fact that the valley here is named Gum Lick Hollow and it sits between Crofton and Kelly Kentucky where it crosses over the West Fork of Pond River and is the highest and longest trestle on the CSX Henderson Subdivision. It’s located between J. Knight Road grade crossing and the Cavanaugh Lane overpass. This month this intermodal has been running with these autoracks loaded with Teslas out of California by way of Union Pacific on their way south to Florida. Today’s train had 22 autoracks. The cars range in price from $46,000 – $120,000, depending on the model. If you use the If you use a mid-range average price of $60,000 these 22 autoracks are carrying about $12 million dollars in Teslas!
