Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Oct 2024
Eastbound on Detroit Sun led by GP40-2. I think it’s a Local because it’s stopping at the Truss company in Livonia but it has 20+ cars .
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

12:45 engine 2680 Y121 lite power arriving at Zeeland perhaps to reposition or pull the big 12 axle flat or the 2 BNSF hoppers stuck behind it. I think the Lumber Yard spur is empty.

L302-04 by Howell at 17:45 with returning power from yesterday's L303-03. 71 cars including 3 more scrap empties for Oghiara. At least got the numbers today on like the slew of cars that were on L302 yesterday that I didn't get any.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Oct 2024
Maybe around 18:30, L305 took the siding at EE Trowbridge. They called as 4057 which further begs a question I had been meaning to ask;
A friend told me that on Wednesday night, he observed 4057 + 4061 in the yard at Ensel, in addition to 5489 + 5328. Why are there two sets of power? The GEs are not from the latest G077.
19:11 - Sounds like L302-04 is nearing the diamond, calling to get permission thru the construction.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Oct 2024
The original EMD set prior to the GEs had some sort of issue that I didn’t hear very well from the west side of the state. So a pair of GE was temporarily used to move L304-305’s cars than the GE set had issues so a new set was needed, which was why 4057 and 4061 was dropped in Lansingamessmann wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 7:12 pmMaybe around 18:30, L305 took the siding at EE Trowbridge.
