CSX Y225 with Road Slug 2383 and GP40-2 6983 cross the Hillsborough River with 16 cars, a pretty good sized train. This bascule bridge was built by the ACL in 1915. The line to Port Tampa goes right through downtown Tampa and there is a short stretch of street running involved. The A-Line now officially ends at the Tampa Union Station leat at milepost A881.7, although it continues another 8.3 miles to old Port Tampa at A890.0 where it hits Tampa Bay. This last 8 miles of track is now known as the Port Tampa Spur. CSXT 2385 is one of the newer CSX Road Slugs. |
