I just heard about this too. Apparently there were no injuries, and 59 people were on board the train at the time of the collision. On a news video I saw the train was bound for Holland and is currently having difficulties with the lead locomotive. They also said that there is a freight train that h...

NS ex Southern Rathole Division in Dansville. CSX in Corbin or WInchester. CSX in Bowling Green. All main lines.

Thank you for the Info!

Hello everyone, me and my family are going to Kentucky this summer for a vacation. We are going to try to get some tickets for the Kentucky Railway Museum excursion train but other than that I am not very aware of good spots for train watching. Does anyone have more knowledge on this? If so, what ar...

I hear the MS heading back north

Yeah I think the 2170 might be leading

... I am guessing he might return earlier than normal since he is running much earlier this morning

Leslie Horn on Point, That would be 2170

Around 12 if all goes well

Yeah, probably around 12 or 1

Just heard the MSRR at 9:35 A.M. by the high school. Sounds like maybe the 2025 or 2019 is leading due to the horn. Going southbound, not sure of the consist.

Nice, it will be much easier to chase them

Just heard the MSRR at 10:23 A.M. Not sure of the direction, but I am assuming he's going southbound to drop off empties and pick up loaded cars. I heard him near the High School. Not sure of the consist or what Locomotive is leading.

Wow... how things have changed! Very cool.

Thanks for the info everyone!

Hello everyone, I have recently been hearing the MSRR at about 9:30 to 10:30 PM at night (as I live about a mile and half from the tracks) and was wondering if anyone knew any other information about this as I know that they used to run only at night a few years ago. For the past 2 maybe 3 years It ...

Ok, thanks for letting me know. I just want to try to get some last shots of HESR 2025 before it leaves.

Anyone know when HESR 2025 is leaving, or if it already has?

Yeah, sadly speed restrictions are just a reality for the MS. I was looking through a pdf of an old CSX timetable from 2005 (when CSX still owned and operated the line) and at many of the the mileposts there is a max speed of 10 MPH. For me, it is pretty sad to see this line in such bad shape in som...

That's sad that they are replacing HESR 2025. I love the horn on that unit. It seems like the MS is always getting a new unit every few years, but MMRR 2019 is still going strong. Also, does anyone know were MMRR 2057 ended up?
