Some evening stuff from around GR. 37E crew was on duty and milling around in Hughart Yard before 21:30. Power was an SD50 or 60 and GEVO pair. I later heard the train blowing for crossings near 76th and 84th streets around 23:15.
About 00:45, I saw Y321 (or what I presume is still Y321) going north through Sunnyside with CSX 2741 and one gondola.

I will do that. Friday cars contained the ususal, albeit more because CSX had not delivered in a week. Grain/Plastic cars, Coke Loads, Pole Loads, empties for pole load loadings etc. Am not sure, but perhaps a couple of tank cars. When I see these, don't know if its loads going north, or empties going north to load. I will watch more closer for you.
