CSX Location Updates 3/16/13

Unread post by cnw8835 »

Q326 just arrived at Wyoming. It looked like they had CSX 8082, 8577 and 6354 for power.
It appears that there is an N956 tied down in the yard. In an departure from the norm, the train is made up mostly of older FSTX bottom dump cars with some lease fleet and BNSF bottom dump cars mixed in. BNSF 6062 appears to have been the leader and is at the house with a 70mac.
