CSX Yeoman & Uceta Yard Road trains arriving & leaving Tampa, plus Yard train building and fueling
An evening of many yard operations at Tampa's Yeoman and Uceta yards, including six different trains sporting a total of 13 working locomotives, only one of which is a 4-axle switch engine, and more are seen in the yard. This video highlights common activities such as building an intermodal train, switching operations to take apart and build local and long-distance road trains, fueling locomotives, and receiving and cutting apart a super-long daily manifest train. After the Amtrak Silver Star clears the A line bound for New York, daily intermodal CSX I044 is created out of Uceta Yard by three CSX 6-axle locomotives, which pick up two cuts of intermodal cars before leaving for Jacksonville, FL. Empty hopper train L778 from Neve Spur has to wait another 20 minutes near Uceta Yard's turnout on the A Line before it can also depart to the East, pulling many types of hoppers including blue Vulcan hoppers. In nearby Yeoman Yard, CSX switcher 4332 is busy all evening taking apart and putting together various cuts of cars for outgoing local and road trains, including a string of Tropicana reefers which are usually the first cut of daily manifest train M442 from Tampa to Waycross, GA. Various power movements are seen around the yard, and an 18-wheeler Mack fuel tanker moves around the yard to fuel locomotives. At the end of the video it's seen waiting next to the AZA-line bypass track, probably to fuel a large unit train due to arrive later in the evening. A fully loaded hopper train carrying wet rock phosphate from Florida's Bone Valley arrives, after waiting a half hour to the East of the yard. It's led by recently rebuilt biofuel-diesel-powered CSX 7510 and CSX 7500. No fuel was used making this video - all shots were taken on a bicycle ride, as usual! Later, daily manifest train M441 arrives from Waycross GA. It's at least two miles long, led by 3 CSX 6-axle locomotives. It's so long that it ends up sticking 1/2 mile out of the West end of the yard, blocking traffic on US 41 (50th St) as it's broken up, dropping cuts of cars in yard sidings. All clips are shown in chronological sequence, and were taken on a bicycle ride using 2 Canon M6ii cameras with an EF-M 18-55mm, EF-S 55-250 IS STM + Kenko 1.5x SHQ TC, and at dusk a Rokinon 12mm f2 lens.
