Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
18:16 - L302 calling an approach for EE Brighton, no visual, they met L303 in South Lyon.
18:52 - L302 stopped on the main at Brighton, all reds both directions. Dim headlight all that can be seen through the snow. Does not sound like 4015 is running, only 162.
19:42 - L302 on the phone with dispatch, sounds like they are ready to head west from Brighton. Hearing distant horns at 19:47, L302 calling WE Brighton. Wishing the crew good luck tonight, if my car handled as poorly as it did in this weather, I can't imagine how their train will.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
OK, ex GTW GP9 #4428 is being returned to GLLX! I've photographed it in the past, including Conrad Yelvington® Stone near Flint! OK, this is a cool historic engine! S.R.I. was also sending back Precision Leasing® ex WM SD40-2 #7471!!!! Does anyone know where that engine is currently (March 4th)? Did it already leave CSX? Or, could it be around Rougemere Yard? It would be nice to capture it in the snow (I caught running the 'Polar Express' in Dec.)! Sometimes it takes a long time to return lessors! What about ex MARC® GP40-2WH #57?
