Thanks a ton for this information.SD80MAC wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2024 9:27 pmY290 is the second shift switcher at the east end. Normally does not leave the yard so you probably wouldn't hear them on the road channel. Any X90 series yard job is a remote control job. Remote control jobs operating in yard limits have zones consisting of certain tracks or leads. These zones exist so that the remote job can go about its work and not have to worry about switches being thrown by other train crews or running into another train, since there isn't always someone watching the head end. No other train can enter into an established zone without permission from the foreman on the yard job, in this case Y290. Wyoming Yard has zones on the Old Even Lead (W41 switch to the signal at Plaster), Even Lead (E08 switch to the signal at Plaster), E08 track (all of E08), W01 Lead (E36 all the way up to the W01 switch on the Old Even), 33 Lead (W03 switch to the W35 switch, the west end of the odd tracks), and the Back Lead (top of the yard).

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2024
M327-30 is stopped at Ivanrest MP CG4.7.
Don't know who is listening to the scanner but they're stopped do to an error with PTC. They were moving at about 7 mph when it threw a com fault. It put them in brake suppression.
Right now PTC is tempting to remote into the locomotive system. Might be a bit before they depart.
No filming for me since it started to rain fairly heavy.

M327-30 should be leaving now. PTC help desk was able to get them up and running. Took a couple reboots from what I heard on the scanner.
