That Q326-28 is eastbound at Vine at 17:50 ET. 592 axles, 8095 feet at 91.9 DD. Good sized "extra" train!
Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April 2017
Now that ALL the Toledo to Grand Rapids cars are coming via Chicago, that used to come on the Q392-D708 shuttle trains, AFTER CSX took away Q334 & Q335 on Feb. 25th, 2016, and combine it with ALL the cars that run on the Toledo to Flint 321-322 jobs that will also be routed to Chicago to come onto Q326 to Grand Rapids, and combine that with ALL the cars Q326 would have to GRP on its own, I would expect A LOT of Extra 326 trains to be running for quite some time, and, 327 too for that matter (even running six days a week, if not seven days) How's that for a LONG sentence. My high school english teacher from 55 years ago wouldn't like that.justin_gram wrote:That Q326-28 is eastbound at Vine at 17:50 ET. 592 axles, 8095 feet at 91.9 DD. Good sized "extra" train!

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: April 2017
The first run of the new Grand Rapids to Flint trains started this morning, Leaving GRP shortly after 08:00, it is already approaching Lansing. Assume the first train out of Flint won't start until tomorrow morning to use the power coming there on todays train.

Heard a train heading west maybe around 8am. D700? Funky old sounding horn.SD80MAC wrote:Y106 eastbound out of Wyoming at this time.
