CSX 3144, CSX 5446, and CSX 7674 Rolling North at Gallatin - Video

While out doing some errands with my daughter, we saw this train, which she "demanded" we try to get ahead of so that we could take a photo of. Since I only had my phone with me I decided to capture some video. I shortened the duration of the train passing, and got a couple of different angles of the train. The video is fifty-three seconds in duration. The train is rolling north through Gallatin, on the CSX's Main Line Subdivision , heading toward Louisville, KY. On the point are CSXT 3144, CSXT 5446, and CSXT 7674. Video taken: November 15, 2017. Gallatin, Tennessee.
