CSX Train Location Update 2-17-14

Unread post by Raildudes dad »

CSX didn't visit the GRE over the weekend. Cut of outbound cars still west of Alpine, cars on both interchange tracks and a cut in the yard. Trackworks mechanic there this morning. Don't know if he's repairing or going to help load the loader and regulator to move out. 1+3 on 371

E446 is currently wyeing their power downtown in GR. I'm not sure if they are going to be going to West Olive to get empties or if there is already a empty train at Wyoming.
Q334 is going to be coming out of the house shortly and tying onto their train in 6 Track. One bad order to set out.
D700 departed Wyoming a little bit ago but has not yet passed Grandville.

Edit: D700 has about 70 cars for Holland with them today. They will be leaving the Muskegon cars in the siding between 112th Ave and Waverly. Work at Hartford, Coloma, Livingston and Sawyer today.

2nd Edit: E446 must be going east for empties (MSU?). Now between Madison & Seymour in GR at 0948. Lite power, CSX 22 leading.

Livingston siding is empty.
There is more than 25 sand cars here though. The snow has been plowed on the sand and tracks recently.

That unit (along with 334 on yesterday's N922) probably
snuck back from West Olive in the middle of the night. 334 would have been leading 22, but they must have preferred that 22 be leading out of GR for some reason.

GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

Yesterday's Q335 that died at Fox last night is arriving at Wyoming Yard currently with the Y106 crew aboard.
Q334 is still dealing with issues in their train before they can depart east.

Please do not poke at the ramp agent because he has the power to make your vacation
memorable or miserable. It all depends on what flight you bags go on.
