Z151-01 south at Market at 16:28 EDT. GLLX 3003, MQT 2008 & GLLX 3002 had 103 cars on their drawbars. Looked like it was all Ludington/Manistee stuff. Going to Track 6 in Wyoming, YM says they're barely going to fit.

Train getting put together at the East End of Wyoming Yard. Will have a AC44CW & AC60CW leading the way, but I'm not sure if it is Q334 or X326...
2639 drilling the east end as well, didn't catch what the Northend was using. Lots of power at the house, before that 44 & 60 went to hook up, there were 6 six-axles at the house. Besides the aformentioned, their numbers were 8749, 4754, 574 and one more I couldn't read the number because it was blocked. In addition, there was a duo of six-axles at the west end.
For those keeping score, there were 4 sets of six-axles in Wyoming, and then presumebly three GP38-2s and two RC drones.

Doc, was the X326 traffic mostly forwarded onto Q334 for Toledo?Doktor No wrote:That X was an X326 out of Clearing for mostly Toledo.
Sooooo dump X326, 335, 326, two Z151 trains...then have the regular carmen come in at 8 so nothing gets worked...can't switch till worked...yard crews twiddle thumbs until....now we have a new flood OF TRAFFIC and no help to stem the tide. Sounds about right. Hopefully we have a couple more switch engines go buns up and then its DONE like DINNER.

Through the crossing at Saubee Road, 1 mile east of Woodbury near ch115, at about 2136. 2 CSX Locomotives leading coupled back to back. Couldn't see any numbers lit up. 120 cars trailing.cnw8835 wrote:Q334 eastbound at the west end of Fox at 2034.MQT3001 wrote:Train getting put together at the East End of Wyoming Yard.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: 05/01/13
Short train? 105 cars had to be switched out. I think you might have seen the train stretched from Fuller to Bridge street. If you average a freight car at 50', your train length is around 5250'. Give slack and locomotives, realistically the train was about a mile long.MQT3001 wrote:Z151-01 north at Fuller at 17:45. Short Train, only from Fuller to Leonard.

First crossing I saw the train at was Richmond, last was Leonard, going south on 131. Got over the tracks at 196 and the rear was clearing Leonard...i995impalass wrote:Short train? 105 cars had to be switched out.
