You are correct. L303-14 just rolled by at Sunnyside with mentioned cars and engines. I believe it’s a K5HLA horn

18:19 - G126-11 calling a clear pair for Brighton. They are headed to Grand Rapids, not sure where after that.
18:23 - G126-11 calling clear for CH 49.
18:28 - G126-11 calling clear for CH 51.
Second unit looks like a Tier 4 EMD, 8905?

C800-13 @ 18:37 eastward reported by the DD mp CG44.2 with 526 axles (+2 error) & 6,608 feet long. BNSF engine #8566 & 128 loaded coal cars & rear dpu BNSF #5985.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2022
Should be another grain empty for Newayo. 3375 leading. 8903 was trailing. First grain empty in a long time that has not gone through under the cover of darkness in the middle of the night.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2022
Both 3375 and 8903 have DPU stickers. I thought CSX's policy was to use DPU when both locomotives were capable. Maybe not for empty unit trains?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2022
L303-14 @ 20:06 released his EC1 for Ensel/east end Grand Ledge to proceed eastward & G126-11 copied their EC1 @ 20:09 to proceed westward (couldn't make out his location & the limits of his authority due to static).
G126-11 @ 20:37 westward received permission by the Stop signal at Ensel mp CH90. There appears to be signal system issues & he's to notify the Dispatcher when he sees his 1st good signal.
