09:45 N956 WAS SITTING ACROSS IVANREST BY 15+ CARS. TOWER JUST INFORMED CREW THAT THEY ARE TO PULL EAST DOWN THE MAIN. NO PUSHERS ON WEST END OF TRAIN SO I'M WONDERING IF THEY ARE WAITING FOR A PUSHERS CREW.

CSX 6040 pushed a grain hopper north by Riley St. Holland about an hour ago, and is returning south with 1 boxcar from Stow at 10:29 AM. No caboose today.

RN dispatcher is trying to get ahold of the trainmaster to determine if they are going to build and run a G010, so I would guess that it would be GR if it happens.cnw8835 wrote:Have you heard if the grain train is going to Grand Ledge or Grand Rapids?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates 2-28-13
If they're going to do a G010, the train will likely go to Grand Ledge where the outbound crew will get off or run the power light to GR for servicing, then a G010 crew will take power back and load/build the train. Just my guess.brysonda wrote:RN dispatcher is trying to get ahold of the trainmaster to determine if they are going to build and run a G010, so I would guess that it would be GR if it happens.cnw8835 wrote:Have you heard if the grain train is going to Grand Ledge or Grand Rapids?

CSXT 7575, CSXT 78?? OS Williamston EB @ 11:10(?). Two locos and two or three covered hoppers. Is this the grain train that is being built out of Webberville?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates 2-28-13
Lets see, all this discussion on the grain train, let me put in my two cents worth as I try to put two and two together myself. The 90 car empty, should have been G74122, which has CSX 5293 & 258 for power. Trying to listen to hear if this was going to Webberville or Grand Ledge, with a bad locomotive radio, all I could hear (with the train at Williamston), and talking with the RN, they say it was going to be difficult to have time to get the train spotted. Hearing what "Big T" said above, am now wondering if the power at Williamston and three cars was a G010 train, and perhaps why the grain empty would have to run around their train at Trowbridge to come back east. Meanwhile, D708s crew has been AT Webberville switching for nearly an hour, regardless if on their own train, or the two units and three cars reported at Williamston. Am sure between all of us will get this figured out eventually, but with 90 cars, the empty should not be going to GRP for MQT.Big T wrote:CSXT 7575, CSXT 78?? OS Williamston EB @ 11:10(?).

Q335 had 5486 & 5392 for power this morning with 119 cars. Napco, or Dapco truck just slapped a 10mph speed restriction on west of Howell which the RN was not to happy about with another N956 load coming east.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates 2-28-13
The power at Willimaston with CSX 7575 & 7844 IS D708 who has now moved on down to Fowlerviile. The G74122 train now at Trowbridge IS for Webberville but the crew has now taxied home. It will be spotted by a G010 crew.
