CSX Train Location Updates: 11/10/16

Unread post by Jochs »

Q327-09 is currently going by Riverside. Sounds like CSXT 7742 leading.
edit: 2:22am: sounds like they lost 7742 and stalled on the hill in St. Joseph.

Per da scanner, D70010 is west at Hudsonville. After working Holland,they are planning to drop a car off at Zeeland Lumber on the way back to GR. That'll be an interesting shove :) 10:16am
Y10610 - preparing to depart GR eastbound at 10:25am.

There are two empty centerbeams on the Zeeland Lumber spur which I assume they will pickup. It's an trailing switch for an eastbound move, so the shove shouldn't be too bad :) There was a nice looking BN covered hopper on the Zeeland elevator spur over the weekend which was picked up in the past couple days.

Hm.. guess they could grab the empties, then shove the load in. I've seen Y121 work there a few times that they have the load in the front that they shove down the siding. Pull west into Zeeland Lumber, attach to the empty, keep going west across elm st, then push east with the load and put it on the southern most track on their property to get it out of the way so they can leave. Maybe they don't do that move anymore and don't use the southern most track now at Zeeland Lumber.

20 axles, 362 feet at 91.9 DD. Sounded like an Approach indication at Hilltop.

Csct 8596 and 8550 east at Godfrey in GR with about 40 cars. Likely d70710. Seeing a train while biking? That's a win.

The track at Zeeland Lumber which required a car to be on the front of the engine when going to Zeeland was removed earlier this year. Now the only time Y121 shoves to Zeeland is when they have a hopper for Vandenbosch.
