Remote Control ! Locomotives

Remote control operator at  Painesville ,Ohio CSX 2544 in 2003 with 44 years of service !

Remote control engines are unmanned and are controled with this green box that i have.

The control box communicates with a satellitte and then back to the engine for all of its movements.
