We usually operate between 12:30 pm and midnight. I am also the Chief Commercial Officer rr for the railroad and yes, we are working on bringing multiple new customers online.

Can't wait to see it.

Check your inbox when you get a chance, I sent you a PM.

Good luck catching any movements through Carleton nowadays. Durand and Lansing are the best spots to go to in Michigan. I'm also going to give my two cents regarding the Chicago line. The former NYC Chicago line isn't my go to line at all. It does get indeed boring. The ex B&O between fostoria and ...

Heads up, something to watch out for.

From a source of mine we got a W085 coming to Grand Rapids with UP 8483 leading, it’s a Herzog Ballast train. It’s Down on the St Louis Line right now. Not sure exactly what route it'll take but I’m sure it will come up via Barr.

Thank you. While I do enjoy filming and watching them, I struggle with getting quality photos when the trains are rolling, so really just looking for some places that they’re stopped for a while. I appreciate your comment though

Practice…

353 clear Three Oaks with a charger, one horizon and five venture cars.

L303-01 @ 10:56 Grand Rapids mark up with the RN Dispatcher with what sounded like: CSX engine #849 (solo) & 40 cars (27 loads + 13 empties) @ 4,102 tons & 2,310 feet long. He’s close to departing & has work in Lansing - final destination is Detroit. He is a Key Train today (hazardous). M327-01 @ 1...

ATCS is showing something just past Porter on CSX, maybe 326?

Probably. CSX 743 and CSX 4771 leading.

Wonder where the meet will take place… Livingston?
