Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2024
Yes he will. U302 (a re-crew for a L302 train) is westward bound & the mile posts increase when traveling westward on the Plymouth sub-division. Plymouth is mp CH24.5 & the east end of Brighton is mp CH45.3 / west end is mp CH46.8 & N. Lansing is mp CH88.3 where he might have work to do there before ending his journey in Grand Rapids.NickThatRailfan wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2024 7:16 pmIs U302 gonna run through Brighton tonight though?pudgy wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2024 7:09 pmU302 won't be on the train in Plymouth for a couple hours yet.

U302 is CSX 4531 and 7013 with 128 cars. The train is parked at Lily Road with Joy Road cut. Have to put the train together, then head around the SW Wye and into the Northside Pass to chop the bottom 27 by the Ford Heater switch. Long night for those guys!

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2024
02:10 - U302-15 west thru EE Brighton with 101 cars behind 4531 and 7013. Thanks pudgy and SD80MAC for the info earlier.
The first 42 cars were stone loads. Three brand new coil carriers sounded great as they passed by.
Regarding these U302s, were there traffic changes elsewhere that might warrant more of these, or are things just busy right now?
