Re: CSX train location updates 1/19/2017

Looks like Q327 crew just got onboard and will now start getting their train ready. What looks to be like a tier 4 gevo in front and SD40-2 behind it. Kind of neat contrast of old vs new.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: 12/19/2016

An eastbound has a medium clear Grandville and a clear signal west end of Hudsonville. Would these be early signals for Amtrak, D700, or Q326??

Re: Thanksgiving railfanning 11/24/2016

Ah, that explains it. My grandfather and I are going to Fostoria on Sunday. Hopefully things kind of come back to life. We were originally planning on going there today, but we were starting to get afraid that it would just be a bad turnout.

Thanksgiving railfanning 11/24/2016

Today was quite a slow railfanning day. First, we hit up Blue Island. Spent about an hour and a half there and saw two csx intermodals, and one unit tank car train. Went on to Dolton only to see the same unit tank car train along wth a northbound csx manifest. Porter was our last stop. We were there...

Re: CSX Train Locations - 11/23/2016

If I decide to pace this one, hopefully they will go a little faster. A couple nights ago, I paced Q337 from Grandville to Hudsonville and they went only 15mph the whole way. Had they been going faster, I would've continued pacing them to Zeeland, but it wasn't worth it.

Q327, which will head out later, has a bnsf unit as the lead locomotive along with two other csx units.

Crew van just brought two guys to the west end of wyoming yard and boarded a set of SD50-2's sitting here. Any one know what train they would be leading out?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: 10/29/16

Hear a K5H horn possibly going through Jenison or Grandville. Can't tell if it westbound or eastbound

That's dissapointing. I was convinced that it might've been something else.
