Re: CSX Train Location Updates - February 2024
Did not see anything mentioned of it here,but had westbound empty grain train by Howell at 20:12 yesterday that apparently went to Webberville with "only" 80 cars. 326 axles over the DD at Fowlerville. Train had single YN2 unit #81 on the head end. Train number was G077-26 but probably had a different train number south of Plymouth.

Micah posted this a few days ago about a grain train with CSX #81 solo. This same train passed the Princeton cam a few days ago as well.BL2-1843 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 11:35 amDid not see anything mentioned of it here,but had westbound empty grain train by Howell at 20:12 yesterday that apparently went to Webberville with "only" 80 cars. 326 axles over the DD at Fowlerville.

Amtrak’s Cardinal departed Crawfordsville, Indiana (CSX Monon Sub) around 10:45 with ALC-42 #334 on the point and behind that DOTX 221, the Pennsy painted FRA car. Besides those goodies up front, nothing special behind that. No storms here yet, but Naders are everywhere else!
