BNSF 5851, 6056 light power south at Riley St. Holland 9:30 AM approx.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
Morning Trains By Howell: Q32910 went west at 09:00 with CSX 764+863 and 106 cars, Q328 went east at 09:48 with CP 9376+ UP 5526+ CSX 5470 with 74 cars. Sounds as if there was a mishap with 328 somewhere when a vehicle behind a vehicle, intentional or not, pushed it into the side of their train.

OK, maybe this post belongs here! This train must be a CSX train, Q132!!!! Please help find out where to catch UP "Olympic Torch" SD70M #2001!!!!
Folks, there is no new NS "Updates" for August! Looks like UP "Olympic Torch" SD70M #2001 was spotted in Southgate today, August 9, 2018: https://heritageunits.com/locomotive/detail/UP2001
Where does NS Q132 go? Please help!!!!

CSX intermodals for Detroit go the facility at the south side of the former Livernois Yard off Dix Avenue. Oak Yard on the other hand is split between CSX local carload traffic and CP intermodal. CP leases part of Oak Yard for its small container business. No CSX intermodal is handled there. CSX power from Detroit intermodal possibly would go to Rouge Yard for servicing. Sounds like your Q132 came up the Lincoln Secondary from Carleton.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
UP 2001 should still be there. If CSX didn't hand it off to NS or something in Detroit last night, I've got to figure it'll leave on Q13110 tonight around 8-9pm. Maybe it'll leave on some other afternoon train, dunno. Keep your scanner going if you really need to see that engine moving.Robertrains wrote:OK, this is "Rougemere Yard" in Dearborn, correct?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
64 of those 71 cars, D708 picked up from GLC at Ann Pere yesterday that were delivered to CSX into the Howell pass the night before.. 708 left Howell going back to Lansing with 69 cars. Depending on how many cars 329 sat off, they could have easily left Lansing with 170 cars. That ought to plug up GRP good with the big train coming on 326 today.trnwatcher wrote:12:45 EDT Q329-10 AT DD 126.3. TA 720 TL: 10164.

UP 2001 is still there. Unknown if it'll lead or if you can easily see it. Turn on your scanner, and get outside to go find it. Report back your findings.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
Whatever the case, the Rougemere yard and the yard on Dix Ave in Melvindale are just about a mile apart. Drive or ride your bike between the two and I'm sure you'll find it. Off the computer with you and get railfaning; hop to, chop chop!
