Scanner stayed silent here in SL while a pleasingly tuned K5LA sounded in the distance.

Just exactly where is "Vine" located?
Vine is the second intermediate between St Joe and Livingston. Also a defect detector there, CG 91.9.
On the Michigan map, Vine is actually located in the village of Shoreham, just south of St. Joseph.

E801-20 is currently at Hartford, sounds like UP 9033 leading.

What I think was Y106 just went east by Breton, raining too hard to be able to get a good look at it.

Q38520 by Howell at 17:55. CSX 518 and 226 in YN2, 3321 trailing but facing west. 119 cars, 30 less than Q38519 had earlier this morning. If I was not standing trackside when it went by may not have seen the third unit from the house with all of the black smoke pouring out the exhaust of 226. On the other hand, may not get the odor out of my clothes it was so thick.

Stopped by Seymour to have a looksie at that sat dish, noticed them sitting off to the east... ATCS shows signals for 384, so one could postulate that they aren't far behind?
