A Short Horn Salute is Still a Horn Salute

Friday is almost always an excellent train day around here. Friday, March 25th was no exception. One of my multiple catches was the CSX F779, with its usual mix of woodchip cars (including an ex-SP), manifest, and about half a train of autoracks. Oh, and freight car graffiti. Lots of freight car graffiti.  Not to mention a brief (but appreciated) horn salute from the engineer. Thank you for watching!
