Just saw Q335 or Q327, not on purpose, while driving along Clevland Ave by Hilltop Rd. Had one CSXT 8706 locomotive. Probably at Vine at 12:42. Here's a pic:

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: 2/20/2015
Something just had 314 axles, 4529 feet on the 131.3 DD. I'll watch to see if it's the train I saw at Hilltop earlier or a new eastbound.
EDIT - It was Q327 that was at the DD and that I saw at Hilltop. Chicago west had the tracked lined for Q327 to come down just a few moments ago (with no signal yet) and now she switched it back and trains are moving on the NS... I'll edit this post when Q327 starts moving onto the NS.

Somebody just got a clean DD reading at CH79.9. Based on the axle count, doesn't sound like Q335...but maybe the scanner missed the end.

16:00 EST: Q335 okay on their EC1 for the Main Track West, from EAS Ensel on the Main, to WAS EE Lako, on the main. A dispatcher message has been annulled. Not sure where it is, perhaps out near Lako that Jetlink heard earlier.
