Re: New EMDX Lease units
Rumor has it that CSX will lease 2110 and 2115. I find it hard to believe though...CSX has had awful experiences with these things! Like I said, just a rumor, and we know how the last rumor involving CSX's leaser from NREX turned out...total BS, but for what it's worth, this is what I've heard. Char...

Railfanning Dearborn
I will be visiting family in the Dearborn area next week, and I would like to spend a part of a day railfanning. Because I'm not familiar with the area, I'd prefer to sit in one or two locations all day and see a few trains. I don't care for passenger rail too much, and I really would like to see so...

Re: HLCX Units in Georgia
8150 was on K401 two days ago on CSX over in Ohio. CSX is leasing a batch of HLCX units. Rumor is there are about 100 of them, but based on sightings of reputable sources, here is the list of current leasers that have been seen. There are of course more, but they haven't been spotted. 7175 K401 7/1/...

Rumor has it that they came into Buffalo on NS 369. Not the faintest if it is true or not though...

Re: K408-15
Eastbound CP Ethanol. Takes CSX at Buffalo, usually after a CSX power swap, and then down to NJ. Returns to CP as K409. K400 trains tend to originate east of Chicago, and the K600 trains tend to originate west of Chicago, except for a few of the IHB.

Re: Ferromex on ethanol train in NY
Eastbound, right? That would be K688.
Here is my shot of it:

Re: BNSF SD70ACe's
I'm wondering if this applies to BNSF SD70ACes on non-home rails as well, like when one comes out onto CSX, or if BNSF can just uphold that policy on their rails. I'm also confused; has this been mandated for crew comfort/safety, or so the cab components in the locomotive don't fall apart?

K649
By Churchville ny, QC 386 at 0745hrs with UP 6601 leading. Probably just CSX power trailing.

S393-Heads up west of Buffalo!!!
S393 with BNSF 5392 leading FXE 4605 by Bergen ny, QC 389, at exactly 1400hrs. Bergen is about 1hr and 30m east of Buffalo by the speed it's going.

Re: Ferromex Rebound off K688
Well, from a Rochester Standpoint, if they leave anytime between now and 0800hrs tomorrow morning, I won't get them in daylight in Rochester. CSX probably doesn't have any rush to move the train out, as it is low priority, but then again, they probably won't want to let foreign power that is being p...

Re: Ferromex Rebound off K688
So does it still look like the K688/K689 train itself is in the process of being unloaded to head west, or has it already gone back with CSX power?

Ferromex Rebound off K688
As most of us on CSX's Chicago Line know, K688 had two Ferromex AC4400CWs inbound to Sewaren NJ this past Sunday morning. The units will MOST LIKELY head west on the train's return K689, probably originating either tomorrow or Wednesday. I thought I'd open up this thread to act as a "tracker" for th...

Re: NS Locomotive Update 11/21 to 11/27/10 (NSDash9.com)
Will it be semi-permanently lashed up with one particular slug now or in the future, or are the capabilities there for the use of temporary assignments?

A perfect example of how bad the SD70s are getting. If I didn't know better, I'd say this was ex-UP!
