Finished hooking up at Plymouth around 2:10 PM. Heard something about power being scrambled at Middle River, I wouldn't be surprised if the train is still there cause it had no engines on it when I drove by it at Beck.

Correct, 334 had to hold at Godfrey for hours for 335 as both were too big to meet anywhere.

Went on a bike ride without a cell phone, watch, or scanner so the following sightings have estimated times:
-Heard D735 clear 7 Mile Rd. about 18:30. By the time it should have come into view along Hines Dr., it was already past, so it was a short train.
-About 5 minutes later, D737 was heading north past Middle River with CSX 2680 long hood forward, and 8 Sultran hoppers.
-About 19:00, caught Q335 turning west at Plymouth with CSX 5111 + 7711 + 203 cars. Included a couple of long cuts of BNSF covered hoppers, and maybe a couple dozen cars from the east, Pan Am + Guilford, and even some old Boston & Maine boxcars.
