P37017 east has 20 axles, 363 feet at 91.9 DD at 21:15.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates December 2017
Q327-17 is currently going through Riverside. Sounds like CSXT 312 leading.
P370 is waiting there.
edit: 9:42pm, P370-17 leaving Riverside, Sounds like IDTX 4604 leading.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates December 2017
9:00AM Monday - CSXT #6413 and #2227 arrived at Holland Waverly Yard from Grand Rapids lite units. Not sure if this is a D700 which had no outbound cars or if they are delivering new yard power to Waverly, as D700 took Y121's yard unit #2048 back to GR yesterday.

Q385 west CSX 101 by Seymour
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates December 2017
Detector at 39.1 went off about 30 minutes ago, announced nothing but no defects. Thought it might be D708, but kept quiet because of my history of predicting things. Haven't heard a peep of anything since. And yes, I am monitoring every listed CSX frequency in the wiki, before anyone asks.
EDIT 17:52, confirmed CSX D708, running around at South Lyon. Radio is getting awful reception today.
18:01: Through the static, think I heard the lead of D708 to be get out your pitchforks boys CSX 87. Will update.
18:07 Perhaps CSX 8017
18:10 DD announced 86 axles and 1288 feet

Re: CSX Train Location Updates December 2017
If a DD doesn't announce axles and a length (on CSX standard detectors, anyways), it means the train ended up passing the detector at a slow speed and/or stopped.J3rsdm5 wrote:Detector at 39.1 went off about 30 minutes ago, announced nothing but no defects.

A train is at South Lyon once again, headed west from what I can tell. Was downstairs and couldn't get up fast enough to hear the detector call. Axle count started with a 7
