Re: Sunday on the NS Chicago Line
Hate to ruin everyone's posts, but that "864" is actually 558 as indicated in his log, as well as the fact that it had NORX cars. Those cars are actually not empty either. I've seen 558 a few times and the springs were compressed, but I couldn't see the commodity, so I was wondering if it was some type of ore or something?
Anyways, great report and great photos. Thanks for sharing the symbols.

Re: Sunday on the NS Chicago Line
Ok, 558 must be one of the NORX coal loads. I believe 574 is another. I looked up my logs where I could not see the commodity and it was 598, not 558. I've seen a 572 as well, but that was several years ago. Anyways, it's interesting that despite losing the Selkirk-side traffic on the Chicago Line, west of Oak Harbor NS has almost matched the volume that of before 1999.esprrfan wrote:558 8036, 8088 16000TONS 113 LOADS Shire oaks/ Burns Harbor, 21T was my train

Yea, I hadn't railfanned Vickers/Millbury in a long time, it was a very BUSY day, and I know I missed 3 NS trains... 18M was one.

Re: Sunday on the NS Chicago Line
I am impressed how your picture skills have improved since you began. Keep up the good work TW
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
