Now that D70518 has something to run back to back with 8619, instead of running elephant style with 594 for the past few weeks, perhaps they get 594 to Peaker finally, if it was indeed supposed to go there to start with. 8619 has been on D705 since July 16th. There were nine Ogihara scrap gondola empties in this train. Ogi has been hiding there current seven loads where CSX cant get to then with four empties left to load. When the nine new empties gets there, they have eleven ready to go out like they did in July.

Amessmann should have a photo or video of W003 coming to you soon.
