Maryland Midland’s Union Bridge to Highfield, MD train picks up cars that CSX dropped off at their interchange point at Highfield on June 11, 2006. Three orange and blue and GP38-3s, all with silver painted trucks and spotless paint, are on today's run. The train will soon head back to Union Bridge on the former Western Maryland Railway main. In 2008 Genesee & Wyoming acquired 87.4 % of the Maryland Midland, and Lehigh Cement, the line's largest shipper, now owns 12.6%.
