8849 is a SD40 and a the 8662 is a SD50 :lol: :lol: Oh wow not my best moment :lol: I was thinking those were GE's. I'm surprised they're still elephant style. Only place to spin them is GR or Detroit, so they would have to go all the way to either of them and with the huge backup of work in Ensel ...

D706-15 @ 10:17 heard getting his train together with CSX engines #5220 + #5452.

That power went south on Q511 this morning!

Anybody else but myself see the third unit on D705 overnight, aka G&W fresh painted unit 3510 lettered for HESR? So new you could still smell the paint when it went by. Most of the other new 3500 series unit coming for other railroads have been former HLCX 1800 series units. Came up thru Plymouth o...

Does anyone know where CSX ES44AH 3194 "Spirit of Law Enforcement" is now (around 11 a.m. Sunday 10-24)? :?: :?: Has this locomotive left "Rougemere Yard?" :?: If so, what train? If it is still ther...

W00316 9969 9999 will follow

D706-10 went by Howell at 04:50 this morning with 38 cars. Despite the fact yesterdays D706-09 crew was well rested in Detroit and should have been by already, they are probably holding them there to be sure to get 346+454 back to GRP so it can the power can go back to Detroit again on tomorrows D7...

D706 by Howell at 08:15 with 101 cars. Same power as D706 AND D705 yesterday. If they can get it to Detroit fast enough, D705 can have it again later today.

Got to love it BL2, you called it, by Plymouth @ 14:35

Good new BL2, CSX901 & CSX982 went south on Q51112 this morning. There are 2grain trains sitting in Plymouth and D705 called for 14:30 today. With my luck, D705 will return with the power from D706 this morning and both grain trains will go by in the middle of the night. D705 coming west BL2 with f...

D706-12 went east by Howell at 06:18 this morning with 104 cars. No stone empties. First 40 were cars from Ann Pere that D708 had picked up here. With nothing to pick up, GLC put 31 cars in the Howell pass from the east end by 19:00 Friday, for Monday's pick up. It was an Ann Pere turn too so they ...
