Come to the light

CSX train I137 (Baltimore, MD to Bedford Park, IL, stacks) blasts out of Randolph Tunnel near Doe Gully in rural Morgan County, West Virginia on the Magnolia Cutoff portion of CSXs former B&O Cumberland Sub.

I137 is a veteran of CSX's intermodal service and has existed since CSX's beginning, although with a few slight symbol changes (R137 and Q137). The train's termination point was recently moved from Chicago's 59th St. Intermodal Yard to suburban Bedford Park Intermodal Yard.

Check out some information from the B&ORR Historical Society about the beautifully engineered and constructed Magnolia Cutoff, which is a line relocation and improvement project here:
