They had one car for Standale Lumber in Grandville.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - February 2024
Only one would be a trainee. The other 2 would be a Mentor and the Foreman working the job.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - February 2024
Interesting two of them are wearing orange vest and this is a crew that I normally do not see assigned to Y121.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - February 2024
The foreman must’ve been the guy in the orange vest that got to ride in the cab of the engine while the other two rode on the cars.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - February 2024
Just out of curiosity I looked at the crew for the day... only person who should've been in orange was the TT. The rest of that crew has decades of experience combined. Not sure why the mentor would wear orange either, he's got more time than I do. Also - 4 people on that locomotive would suck, its not that big.
**EDIT** I wasn’t reading closely, the Y121 foreman would indeed be in orange. He’s fairly new.
I guess I read too fast and thought the original comment was for the 106 crew. Lol
