Chasing the Chessie System Heritage unit from Muirkirk to Gaithersburg

Chose to do some railfanning on the Capital Sub and went from Riverdale to Muirkirk, but that was just the start of that. During my time at Muirkirk, I just settled into my car to cool off after waiting for I031-25 to pass, but just 5 minutes later a horn gone off. I got out to check and I was in for an unexpected surprise! CSX 1973 supporting the "Chessie System" heritage. This unit was on M276 and now was assign to Lead M277-25. It started moving slowly and actually thought it was going to stop (Which it didn't), and soon continued on. After that I decided that it was not enough for me, so I chased M277-25 from Muirkirk and relocated to Gaithersburg to get it "as I would always say it" AGAIN! Though the wait was for about half-an-hour, M277-25 came at good speed and horn too. After that, I packed it up and called it a day! M277-25 had 104 Autoracks and 428 axles. Enjoy the video!
