I watched that land barge go through Bridgman around 11:30pm...i sat at the crossing forever! I'm glad you got the axle count/length.justin_gram wrote:Q327-18 with CSXT 43 leading west has 960 axles, 13647 feet at 91.9 DD at 23:14 ET.

The LORAM railgrinder is tied down in the siding in Benton Harbor where the yard used to be.
Empty coal train through St. Joseph at 1:31am. BNSF 5723 and BNSF 8410 for power.

P371-19 west clear Vine 0822. 90219 lead, 20 axles, 364 feet.
LORAM did a few passes over the curve in Stevensville by i94 at around 09:40. Supposedly meeting 326 or empties at New Buffalo.

Did anybody get a look at the Charger pushing 371 today? I heard p370-18 hit a tree branch last night. Supposedly broke the windshield and knocked out power. Must have been able continue the trip, as they arrived St. Joe at 10:30pm, and the trainset returned today.justin_gram wrote:P371-19 west clear Vine 0822. 90219 lead, 20 axles, 364 feet.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates November 2017
Not exactly sure what the score is with the reported Q384 at MP 101 at 6:11 am this morning wih an NS leader, nor, the reported "westbound" at Okemos at 11:05am, but Q38418 just went by Howell at high noon with CSX 540+716 leading, and NS 7294 + UP 8639 trailing with 64 container platforms on the head end and 153 cars trailing including 7 cars of tractors near the end. Some of my favorite container platform doubles on this one, with the top row containers being much longer in length than the bottom row. Those are always the most impressive.

CSX 4042 was the leader. I counted 54 cars, estimating 1/3 of them were tanks. Hoppers and gons rounded out the remainder of the consist, the exception being 2 empty lumber and a few boxesjustin_gram wrote:D70019 eastbound has 34 axles, 406 feet at 91.9 DD at 13:49.
