Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Aug 2023
So far the first good thing (hopefully the first of many) to come out of Boychuck’s departure from CSX: every Detroit car at Barr Yard is now going via Grand Rapids instead of Garrett and Walbridge. That’s why 326, 327, 302 and 303 have been a lot bigger these past couple of weeks.

M326-11 @ 12:31 heading east reported by DD CG44.2 Pearl, Mi at 372 axles with CSX engines #3459 + #155 (elephant style) & 90 cars.
Unknown train @ 12:58 hearing horns in Grand Rapids, could be L303-11 with CSX engines #3027 + #965 & 99 cars (23 loads + 76 empties) @ 5,518 tons & 5,600 feet long. He has work in Lansing.
Or this could be Marquette Rail(?)

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Aug 2023
For those listening to the Plymouth and Flint Sub SuperScanner, wondering your thoughts on discussion between L303 and presumably a ground crew.
L303, after mentioning a fallen tree, discussed crossing replacements among replacement of other infrastructure between Trowbridge and Williamston. Unsure what specifically, just something about CSX starting soon.
This occurred around 14:36. They also joked about Amtrak beginning to run this way, "wouldn't that be nice" they remarked. I am unable to search through the archives.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Aug 2023
Replacement of signals between Trowbridge & Williamston to start soon & be completed by the end of this year from a state funded project. Also mentioned was "putting in a crossing on the west side". West side of where wasn't heard.amessmann wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2023 2:49 pmFor those listening to the Plymouth and Flint Sub SuperScanner, wondering your thoughts on discussion between L303 and presumably a ground crew.

Unknown Train ID @ 15:17 horns heard in Grand Rapids area. I would assume either Y197 / Y297 roaming around or late Y106. Got no visual on the train or cars
