Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
02:14 - Wondering if another grainer snuck west this early-morning, hearing horns in East Lansing, not following the crossing pattern for CN, nor has there been anything on ATCS. GEVO leading based on the horn. I was out a short time ago however neglected to check signals on CSX in the interest of getting home (signals on CN also indicated nothing in the area).
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
Overnight update: @ 01:14 two unidentified engines running lite heading west passed through Zeeland Michigan.
