SWP 2002 and 2001, CSX 2777  Contributor's Pick!       
These engines are heading westbound using CSX track rights, on their way back to Scottdale after dropping off some empties. In the background you can see CSX 2777 getting some fuel from a tanker. #2002 is a former UP 708 GP7 built in 1953. Also SWP 2002 was used in the famous "Unstoppable" movie for the locomotive on the excursion train that barely avoided hitting the runaway train.
