The Cincinnati area has many places where fans gather to watch and photograph trains. One of the best, due to shear number of trains and easy accessibility with public parking on both sides of the tracks, is the one-time heavily industrialized city of Hamilton, Ohio, twenty-five miles north of Cincinnati. The CSX main line between Cincinnati and Toledo and the Norfolk Southern line from Cincinnati to Fort Wayne join together in the center of town and then separate again north of town on the other side of the Great Miami River. NS runs on CSX for two point two miles. Just south of Butler Street in the center of Hamilton, the former Pennsylvania, now Norfolk Southern line to Cincinnati diverges from CSX. North of town NS trains leave CSX at New River junction and head northwest towards New Castle and Fort Wayne. CSX and NS have a modified directional running between Hamilton and Winton Place, north of Cincinnati with most southbounds using NS and northbounds running on CSX. Just south of downtown, CSX’s former Baltimore and Ohio line to Indianapolis known as their Indianapolis Subdivision diverges from the main. With the exception of trains on CSX’s Indianapolis Subdivision, “CSX and NS at Hamilton, Ohio” shows all of the CSX and Norfolk Southern trains through Hamilton for over twenty-four hours in May of 2013. “CSX and NS at Hamilton, Ohio” is three hours and 48 minutes in length and is a three DVD set.

The Clinchfield Railroad, now part of the far flung CSX system, which runs through the Appalachian, Valley and Ridge, and Blue Ridge geological provinces of Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina rather than around them, is considered to be one of the best engineered rail lines in this country and certainly one of the most spectacular in the Eastern half of the U. S. CSX’s Blue Ridge Subdivision, the southern half of the former Clinchfield, extends from the former headquarters of the Clinchfield at Erwin, Tennessee, to Spartanburg, South Carolina, a distance of 137 miles. Half of that distance is spent ascending and then descending the Blue Ridge. This video shows portions of four days and one night along CSX’s Blue Ridge Subdivision between Erwin and Sevier on both sides of the Blue Ridge including the famed “loops”, in November of 2011. Once a bridge route for Florida perishables into the Midwest and a route for locally originated coal to get to power plants in the Southeast, today this heavily railfanned line with some of the best scenery in the East is a corridor for coal from mines in Kentucky and West Virginia to power plants in the Southeast. The Blue Ridge sub is also CSX’s testing ground for distributed power or radio controlled slave unit pushers as all unit trains over 75 cars utilize distributed power, the only part of CSX where DPU has replaced manned pushers as of the fall of 2011. Length = 1 hour and 45 minutes. This DVD has the option of being watched with or without narration.
