"Sparrow24 could be described as a mediocre railfan, as he is generally disinterested in horn types and couldn't tell you one locomotive from another."

E800-01 @ 20:02 westward reported by the DD mp CG91.9 with 536 axles. BNSF engine #9163 & 131 empty coal cars & rear dpu BNSF engine #5628.
R597-02 @ 20:53 with CSX engine #3387 & assuming the CSX #3300 is still paired up with #3387 talking to the RN Dispatcher. Radio message was broken up & it's not known if R597 is originating in Grand Rapids or West Olive & assuming they will eventually go to Wells siding mp CG41.4 to move C800-01 loaded coal train.
L301-02 eastward update: nothing further has been heard, he was to tie down with CSX engine #4070 & 22 cars between Kirk mp CG70.2 & Riverside mp CG80.1 The Dispatcher had asked if Coloma mp CG75.8 could be an option, if not, then it would have to be Kirk. Nothing was heard on the scanners what the outcome was. Gross Siding mp CG63.1 wasn't an option since it has 21 cars loaded with ties tied down in there.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2023
L302-02 had told Rouge he has 3 engines & all of them need to be spun & the 3rd unit is to go back to Lansing. So, it's either CSX engine #8199 or #8619, will know on Saturday, June 3rd when L303-03 does his job briefing. I'm guessing it's the #8619 that L302-28 had set off in Lansing on 5/28/2023 & needed to be spun.Andy24 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 02, 2023 11:09 pmCould be either CSX engines: 2428(?) or 8181(?) or 8199 (?) or 4055(?).
