Heads up, sounds like Q326 later today has a pair of UP units for power, and one of them is UP 1988 (Katy heritage unit).

Q326 just passed 91.9 and in the tiny view of the tracks that I have, I looked up and saw a very different locomotive nose disappearing behind the trees. So it would appear the reports are accurate.

Q326-26 @ 15:03 eastward reported by the DD mp CG91.9 with 280 axles & 3,792 ft. UP engines #6462 + #1988 & 67 cars.
They still need to get X326 out of the way or Q326 isn't going to get far.

They (D706 & D705) have been running at various times, never know at what time they'll run & it's being wondered if they are running on opposite days again, where, D705 runs one day & then D706 runs the next day. That's how they had originally were scheduled & then went to both of them running on the same day I think 6 days a week. But, not sure if they are actually running on the old original opposite days schedule again.
Did you see if D706 did in fact have the CSXT #5105 as his trailing unit?
