N800-05 At full stop south of Holland @ 64th street. Approx MP29.5. I moved to West Leg of Wye to watch this all unfold. Waverly has cars on siding. Not sure where P370 is going to go to get around Q327. Hopefully they get the coal train north soon enough.

[DutchBrad]

N800-05, now D801 is at the West Leg Wye.

D801 stopped. Not much radio calls from this crew. Head end just cleared Roost Ave. No idea why stopped.

[DutchBrad]

Sounds like crew change will happen at Roost and Lakewood. Cab enroute. Holland Depot area likely blocked.
