Just That Time of Year :p

Well, keepin an eye on the weather, and it looks like we are gonna get dumped on. Will be good to see some new photos, and from what I have been reading on another forum be on the lookout for the CSX (ex-CR) Jordan Spreader. Have heard that she will be used if the snow gets too high around the Detro...

Now, here is another question..... Could a pair of GEVO's pull the train? I have seen more of those than Geeps lately.... I do know that Saline Hill is I think a 1% (please correct me if I am wrong). Basically, I see that a pair of GEVO's could do well and pull the train to track speed up the hill.....

Why was geep #8637 on N903 running backwards? Did not think they could do that unless it was a small yard job or a shorter local due to safety concerns?

Cool. I haven't seen many NPCU's here since that accident in jackson between #90218 and that semi. Maybe, they are afraid of losing another one. But, most of thme are now in Phase 5... they look awesome!

Well, signal problems I could understand, those signals at sheldon and point west are all from the PM era. Those are classics all the same..... switches I could see having to be a problem, with the colder weather, and some melted snow getting in the points, but signals are totally understandable. Th...

However, I have seen several S...

Heck, she deserves to be put somewhere nice after retirement, I say a nice museum. Wonder why the paint crews have desended on her main body yet? Will be a sad day, and i think railfans would protest CSX painting her in a DF scheme. How long has she been on the road?
