3865 was sitting in Reese, with its nose pointed toward Richville/Vassar.
Speaking of Richville, there is a cut of CHs sitting on what appears to be the switch for the Richville siding, near the Reese-Vassar "mainline."
Looks like the power for the Dow Job tonight (sorry, forgot the number and don't know the new symbol) is 5086 and one of the 8900s. Looked like a nice size train from Wilder Rd. too...
Sitting at Wenona yard was:
4065, 998, TPW 2002
3868
5086/890X
9712
890X
5492
2014?
Anything stored out where the recently scrapped units used to sit (2001/2002/5175?)
Also, the prime mover from one of the old units sitting near where the scrapping took place is now covered by a gray tarp. The red and black M&N crane used in the scrapping/recovery is still sitting close to Euclid Rd.
Lastly, for what it's worth, I happened to see quite a bit of the traffic on Wilder Rd last night, and noticed a truck with a load of flanged wheels on it coming from the east, headed apparently for the freeway (I-75). I couldn't see it clearly enough to count the number of axles on it, but there were some axles that appeared rusty and others that did not appear to be rusty. I was curious if it's possible that HESR shipped out the axles under the three units that were scrapped, possibly as part of a slae or even to have new traction motors installed?
Oh yeah, I also swung by the LSRC yard on the east end of Wilder Rd. Aside from the staggering amount of motive power in plain sight (i.e. NONE), there was one surprise. I didn't bother stopping for a shot of it, but there was what looked to be a spike puller or a spike putter (something that drives spikes into the ties)...Whatever it is, it's small, bright lemon-yellow and parked just behind the hopper that appears to have been shoved into the spur in front of the Johnson & Johnson plant. It seemed a bit out of place by itself, as well as that far from other MoW equipment.
One last note- I didn't see any autoracks in or around Reese tonight (for those who've seen the thread on the Shortlines board), but I'm looking forward to seeing what shows up, assuming it really happens.
