Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April, 2020
Didn't completely clear Middle River before stopping short of 7 Mile. Missed the engines. Must be a monster train. Saw employee in safety vest near end of train, not sure if they set off yet or not. Not waiting around to find out.C&OGP75745 wrote:Just heard D735 coming north to Plymouth with car setoff on rear of train. Then will proceed north to Lake State in Wixom.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April, 2020
On the return part of my bike ride, saw a boxcar and tanker near the switch at Middle River, so D735 must have set those off.
Just heard the southbound counterpart of D735 at 7 Mile Rd. in the last few minutes.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April, 2020
hi tom
when 327 went by the tower the head end two cars were 2 steel coil cars could they be for sawyer?
followed by covered hoppers.
yesterday 326 setoff cars for waverly, could 327 be setting off, but they are also picking up
3 tracks of cars for Chicago?
will be interesting to see if 700 is abolished for today.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April, 2020
Hi donnie, @ 8:29am the Dispatcher asked Q327 how much longer will he be in Holland & Q327 replied he has another 45 minutes to 1 hour of work left. That makes me wonder if Q327 is picking up cars that yesterday's Q326 had dropped off (Q326 had dropped off 18 cars then). It's taking Q327 longer than usual for just dropping off cars.donnieland wrote:hi tom

Have to wait & see what DD44.2 reports for Q327. D700 is usually on duty at 10:45am & today is the 1st day of his work week - be interesting to see how this works out.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April, 2020
Something was whistling through Zeeland this morning around 10:15 - well after Q327's passage. Not sure what it might have been - power transfer between West Olive or Holland and Wyoming?
