L301-02 @ 10:05am heard starting their day
L301-02 @ 10:22 am Job Briefing with RN Dispatcher in Grand Rapids, Mi: CSX #4044 + CSX #4059 with 10 cars (10 loads and 0 empties), at 1155 tons and 855 ft long. He’s heading to Waverly(?) mp CG22.84 than Hartford mp CG68.7 with a Kirk mp CG70.2 runaround. Dispatcher mentioned M326 at New Buffalo
Revised at 11:05am: it was CSX 449, not 439 with the G802-26
That’s where CSX #439 (Spirit of Birmingham) went, on a grain train. I was curious if they’ll ever return on L302 anytime soon. I saw CSX #439 on L303 a few days ago

Cancel the 439 on the G802-26 grain empty this morning. Typo on my part as it was 449 NOT 439. May not have caught that if you had not mentioned the Spirit of Birmingham unit.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
L301 will be picking up GLLX 4428 from Hartford today and bringing it to Holland to spin it. It was shipped from SRI facing the correct direction but then L302 wyed their power without cutting away from the dead in tow locomotives, and is now facing the wrong direction.Tom49801 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 02, 2023 10:49 amY121-02 @ 10:47 eastward Holland’s Dock Track diverging onto the Main Track at mp CG25.0 with CSX engine #2785 & 2 Gons loaded with scrap metal & going back into Waverly.
