Could be, I dunno. Happened to see it when I was on the end of my break(wasn't close enough to read it), and have never saw one before in person. Wasn't sure how it was spelled and didn't have time to look it up, I just wanted to give a heads up.

Q-132 northbound thru findlay at 3:38pm with Ferromex 4657, CSX 8024, and UP 5182.

Thanks for the update, that's exciting to hear.

From another board
Sounds like it was over around Indy around 8:30.
Just a heads up, good luck!
Have a good weekend everyone!

Q132 EB at CP-IU UP SD70M and UP "We will Deliver" SD9043MAC

Thats been one of my favorite places to go over the past couple years, glad i took lots of pictures

Q131 just went south thru findlay around 1:10 am with up 2002 torch unit leading....

That looks really good, nice job!

(saw the Q130 the other morning on its northward journey as well) That would be Q132 northbound on the Toledo Branch. :-) been reading Q132 for nearly a week, dunno why my fingers shot that off, correction made. Don't know if anyone ever checks up on this site http://indianarailroads.org/board/inde...

Saw that Q131 about 4:20 this morning here in Findlay(saw the Q132 the other morning on its northward journey as well), the branch has more action than I had imagined. Q131 was following another train by about 20 minutes, Also around 11 last night a NB went by, then about 10 minutes later another wa...

7/28/11. WB LIFW through VW at 10:23 AM. It had IORY 4032/CORP 4024 and a massive 6 cars. 1 glorious box car, 1 lonely gon and 4 grainers. :lol: EB grain train at 10:30PM through with CSX 7567/ 5259? and 90 car unit train. All cars were AEX. There's about 14-16 soda ash hoppers at the VW Terminal. ...

7/27/11. WB at 11:10AM with IORY 4032/CORP 4024 and 24 cars. Had around 4 box cars, 6 empty steel flats for SDI, 4 or so tanks and the rest grain hoppers. CF&E East thanks for the grain train info. Anytime youv've got something post it. Thanks. PW I'll will when I can, but I'm moving on the first. ...

7/27/11 12:10 AM WB Grain train Ada, OH Two CSX engines for power, must be a slow order through town cause the train is only going 10 mph or so.....12:17 and it's still going by. Long train never the less.

Later,

Sounds like one of those trains that will use the soon to be built connection at Galatea in the future. I presume right now it goes to Fostoria, south down the C&O to Marion, then west on the Big Four to Ridgeway before turning south to Columubus. Thanks, I was wondering if it would end up using th...

Anyone know its whole routing? TIA, Jim

Yes, things are finally coming full circle in NB. Step four, finish the connection at Galatea. What connection is going to be built? I assume it will connect from / to the west, but will it connect to the north or to the south or both? Should be in the southwest quadrant of the diamond, from what I...

Yeah I had read somewhere that the connection was still scheduled to have construction started in July, but they also said they would believe it when they see it. I'm getting ready to relocate from my place a block away from the CF&E to a place in Findlay a half block away from the Toledo Branch, so...

So the eastbound trip over the CF&E is set for the 29th then? Or late in the day on the 28th?

I heard through the grapevine it is being expected in Bucyrus around Noon on the 29th, but I'd stay tuned for sure.........

The Weed sprayer came today working East around 9 am thru Ada, OH.
