In this video, C. Vision Productions takes you to Kentucky in the 1990s, to view operations on coal-hauler Transkentucky Transportation Railroad (TTI). We’ll see the railroad’s classic fleet of GE U28B locomotives powering heavy coal trains through the hilly terrain of rural Kentucky. Videographer Dan Hadley documented TTI’s entire mainline, between Paris, Kentucky and Maysville, Kentucky, with additional coverage of TTI trains on CSX track in Maysville, leading to the rail-to-water transload facility on the Ohio River. As of 2023, TTI no longer operates coal trains, and their mainline sits in silence.
Tunnels, jointed rail, smoky U-Boats, and pleasant Kentucky scenery all came together to make Transkentucky Transportation the popular railfan destination that it had been for three and a half decades. Come along with C. Vision Productions, as we tour the railroad during better days.
