[GTW6401]

The 6062 was the power for D717 yesterday, so I wonder where the D902 came out of?

[SW]

I'm guessing it came out of North yard in Plymouth. May have been running light up to Lincoln Yard or Flint to get the racks. I didn't see it when it was going northbound; just heard it on the scanner.

[conrailmike]

Must have been Lincoln, because I've only had 3 trains up here today.

[msurailfan]

Anybody know if today was the last X500?

[~Z~]

Not that it helps much at this point, but MQT Z15107 was northbound out of GR around 2:50pm per GP30M4216.
Also, at least CP X50008 should be running tomorrow, so probably not the end of X500 yet.

Not that it helps much at this point, but MQT Z15107 was northbound out of GR around 2:50pm per GP30M4216.
