Y121 is at Windquest (Riley Street).

D802 went south by Riley St. around 7:20 or so.

Heard D80329 around 12:34 (and again at 12:55?) at Waverly. Heard Q326 around 12:40.

D80130 is in Holland...but how can that be? It's the 29th today! Maybe my scanner is receiving messages from the future... Someone call the crew and get them an updated calendar! EDIT: Just looked at Zack's post - there is D80130 listed...I guess I don't understand when the origin point/date of the ...

Zack...not really sure. i thought it was 2801, but the train caught me by surprise and I was trying not to cause an accident to get to the tracks. It was a CSXT dark future, actualy both engines were. It had a couple coil steel cars, and a few hoppers. So, what ever train it was, it was really over...

BNSF units 6098 and 8846 south at Riley St. 9:18 AM. Light power.

"Amtrak P371 clear indication Holland" 8:20 AM

Just heard something coming into Holland over the scanner - thought I heard them call out that they are in engine 6060 (or 6061)??? Maybe I'm hearing that because I just posted to the location update thread for yesterday about SOO 6060 on X500...

[quote="rsinoms"]last night's X500 had a soo 6060 (which is a SD60M in Candy apple)


I like that shot! It seems I've heard 6060 on X500 before - next time I better get out and try to get a shot of it - I know someone that's a SOO fan out in New Jersey who would like to see more of this one.

D802 is dead in the Power Block...

EDIT: D80328 hooking on to coal train (with BNSF engine 6227) at milepost CGC 29. Last car of train is at milepost 27.8. 10:15 PM.

BNSF engines 5900 and 8848 south at Riley St. 4:12 PM. Light power.

X50026 clear east Saugatuck 8:18 PM.
Clear Holland depot 8:31 PM.

Y121 north by Riley St. 2:05 PM - looks like they will work Windquest first. 1 caboose, 4 covered hoppers (for mill at North Harlem probably), looks like maybe two reefers for TLC, and 4 boxcars for Windquest. EDIT: 2:47 PM - Y121 heading back south with GP38-2 2509, two cars and a caboose. Heading ...

Just heard D80127 east - milepost 27...

EDIT: D802 north past Riley St. at 1:09 PM - BNSF engines 8848 and 5900.
D801 is negotiating with Y121 about entering the yard at Waverly.

D80227 north entering the Power Block 12:55 PM.

D80127 is in Holland somewhere - heard them approaching the west leg of the wye.

Tim, Through my ineptitude I may have screwed up your original post. I apologize if I did. Re the bank: If I were to receive that kind of treatment while waiting for them to open they surely would hear about that; LOUD AND CLEAR. I have just enough money in their hands to be known by name when I hi...

Thought I just heard my Aussie friend Dale G. out there on board N956-25...

D80125 is leaving the power plant with 130 empties. Will be at Holland depot in approx. 20 minutes. They report they don't have sufficient power - one unit is an SD40, so they estimate they are are about 1000 horse power short. Apparently one of the units they planned to use developed an oil leak. S...

X500 - Zeeland: "CSX equipment defect detector, milepost 19.1... length of train 5019 total axels 212..." no defects.
