P370 is going on duty, but no guarantee that they will leave Chicago due to the widespread PTC outage currently pinning down Amtrak today. 50/50 shot whether or not we see it tonight.
Not sure if it was specified but G126 is for MQT in Newayyyygo again.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
Just missed something westbound through South Lyon. My only guess would be a grain train of some sort.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
That was C800-25 with BNSF engine #8523 & 130 loaded coal cars & rear dpu most likely is BNSF engine #9753. At 23:01 he asked Dispatch what the plans are for him & appears he'll take Kirk siding mp CG72.3 & tie down, Dispatcher had said she'll get back to him saying it may be Wells siding for the tie down & is unaware there is already an empty coal train R597 had tied down there just hours ago & there is also a loaded coal train tied down in Grand Jct siding.
Amtrak P370-25 @ 23:11 eastward reported by the Defect Detector mp CG44.2 in Pearl, Mi with 16 axles.
The plan @ 23:14 is C800-25 will take Gross siding mp CG63.1 & wait there until the empty coal train inside Wells siding is crewed & departs.
Amtrak P370-25 @ 23:47 eastward reported by the Defect Detector mp CG19.1 in Zeeland, Mi with 16 axles. IDTX engine #4602 & 3 cars (AmCafe + 2 Ventures).
C800-25 @ 23:53 at a stop in Gross Siding mp CG61.4
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
12:02 - G126 westbound thru Trowbridge headed for Newago. I too missed it.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
This was a very late P37024 you heard coming east.
Just a Fat Guy
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
No it wasn’t it was 2 unidentified engines passing through Zeeland Michigan heading west. This was a visual confirmation. Not only did I see those two unidentified engines I also saw Amtrak pass through heading east.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
Could have been CSX #3289 and CSX #3209 heading west and waiting to be connected to a loaded coal train. They went eastbound towards GR with that PRMY 7209 Consumer Energy engine switcher(?)
