May 23,2017 – It was a mild, sunny afternoon as a CSX crew worked on building a train at Patio Yard in Winchester, Ky on CSX’s CC Subdivision (Cincinnati-Corbin), a scene that is repeated many times a day across the world as railroads move goods and commodities.
January 29, 2017 On Lambs Ferry Road in Ryland Kentucky, sit the Twin Train Tunnels designed and built by the L&N Railroad, now owned by CSX. Urban Legend has it, that back in the 1930s a man was hit and killed here. Some say he was connected to the railroad, some say he was out for an evening stroll. Now he reportedly can be seen walking through the tunnel, seemingly trying to reach the exit. Sometimes he carries a lantern, other times not. Don’t become an Urban Legend yourself and never trespass, especially on bridges and tunnels! Fortunately, CSX Q541-29 made it through with its train heading south on the current CC Subdivision. The former Louisville and Nashville RR mainline from Cincinnati to Corbin, Kentucky (CC Subdivision) was constructed in the late 1850’s by the Kentucky Central Railroad. Playing a significant role in supplying and moving troops during the Civil War, it later became an important coal route for the L&N. Today, the line sees substantial traffic, although coal has become less important a commodity on the line north of Winchester, replaced with general merchandise, automotive, and intermodal. Today the line is known as the CC Subdivision of the CSX Huntington West Division.
