Q327 was by Fennville around 00:30 with all four units kicking and screaming. Slow crawl when they hit M89, cruising along near track speed by the end. Neat stuff at night

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2017
0905- Q326 at Holland, D801 cut away and following them. Sounds like D702 is coming east out of GR as well.
Edit- D702 by Fox at 0920. CSX 3072 leading.

BNSF 6323, 8596 light power north at Riley St. Holland 9:30 AM.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2017
D70607, right on time, by Howell at high noon. CSX 3072 leading +7916+7754 and perhaps 5204 on the trail. May have had more units than that but could find only four written down. Around 125 cars. They will need a pilot at Plymouth today, and may have a lengthy time waiting.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2017
I know it's just a silly typo, but D702-07. Currently lined at Middle River through South Lincoln. Train must be at Plymouth, and could still be a while.. I have noticed many times that trains with re crew points will still be lined on ATCS for the layout in this area.cogp75745 wrote:4 units on train 4th unit is 5324BL2-1843 wrote:D70607, right on time, by Howell at high noon.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2017
Thanks on the 4th unit number correction. NICE to know you are still around. Guess I had better watch myself as apparently I have called D702 as D706 more than once.cogp75745 wrote:4 units on train 4th unit is 5324BL2-1843 wrote:D70607, right on time, by Howell at high noon.
