CSX Train Location Update 4-30-12
Couple outbound CH's at the GRE, that's it plus 127 on the rear of 371.
Re: CSX Train Location Update 4-30-12
some huge grain extra went through Okemos at about 9:20am, heading east.

That would have been G96429 from either Grand Ledge or Newaygo with CSX 4734 & 370 for power.johnnycat wrote:some huge grain extra went through Okemos at about 9:20am, heading east.
Around 03:00 this morning Q33529 went west with 94 cars with CSX 5495 & 8763. Only got a split second view, but right behind the CSX units was an old switcher and a F7A type locomotive. Saw no numbers or reporting marks but, unless they had already been moved out earlier, could possibly be the Coe Rail locomotives from Walled Lake.

Those would be ABRX 725 and 1512 most likely.
Where would these be going now (if anyone knows)? They sure have been seen a lot of places! I would like to catch them again! At least I caught them being switched out of Wixom, Tuesday 4-17! I didn't see them more than that, outside of the old Coe line!

Re: CSX Train Location Update 4-30-12
D707s recrew is D708s no recrew. D708 turned at Fowlerville and went back west with 45 cars that did not get delivered today and will be lucky to make it back. First day with the new set up is no different than the last day of the old set up. First switch of the day at Rhetec did not begin until 14:25.cnw8835 wrote:D707 is recrewed and heading east.
