Rosenberg (KCS) CSX, CPKC
Of all the Class 1 railroads, CSX is probably the (US-based) Class 1 I've taken the fewest shots of. While no eastern railroad is particularly common in Colorado, CSX seems to be exceptionally rare in the Centennial State. Here, a CSX AC4400CW is second on a southbound CPKC intermodal train in Kendleton, TX.

Rosenberg (KCS) CPKC
While I was on a business trip in Texas, I had roughly two days to do some photography. I was hoping to get plenty of KCS Belle shots as that scheme will be fading in coming years with the creation of CPKC. One thing I was not expecting was to find a CP/CSX duo leading a train through south Texas! I was not complaining, however, as the red and blue contrast was a nice variation from the yellow and orange I'm used to seeing in Colorado.

A northbound train switches on a yard lead at Kendleton Yard as a southbound intermodal train rolls down the main. The southbound will stop at the south end of the yard and tie down on the main, waiting for a fresh crew to take the train south.

A few miles north of Kendleton finds a northbound mixed intermodal/auto rack train on the move with a fresh crew. As part of this trip, I was really hoping to get shots of KCS Belle's on as many trains as possible. So it was quite ironic how many trains I caught with solid CP power!

Rosenberg (KCS) Canadian Pacific, CPKC
A pair of Canadian Pacific GEs shove part of an intermodal train back in to the ramp at the Kendleton Yard. Once complete, the train will pull to the north end of the yard limits and wait for a recrew. A southbound covered hopper train waits for a recrew in the distance as a northbound tank train also pulls in to the yard.

A GP38-2 and a rebuilt GP40-3 (of Frisco origins) switch a string of autoracks at CPKC's Kendleton Yard in Kendleton, TX, which is located a little over 40 miles southwest of downtown Houston. This yard serves as a crew change point for CPKC trains on the Rosenberg Sub. Trains departing north do not stop in Houston, but continue straight through.

Despite the fact that final approval for the merger between Canadian Pacific and Kansas City Southern just came through a few months ago, the sign at the entrance to the intermodal facility and yard in Kendleton, TX has already been changed to reflect the new CPKC name, logo, and colors!
