Yeah, I reported that last Thursday night.

GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

So one of the units is down on MS. I'm not familiar with their roster. I take it they only have three units on MS and the GP38 is down. Is that correct?

3885 has been sitting in front of Henry St. enginehouse for about a week now, I haven't seen it move (though I haven't been paying close attention, either). 3836 and 3839 are sitting in the house, no apparent problems. I don't know about the 9's, I didn't see them at Henry St. yard today, and there was nothing at North Yard on New Years day. They've only run two or three days this week seeing as it's a holiday week, but I wasn't paying attention to what power they were using (I listen to them on the scanner).
