Q326 into Wyoming Yard at 17:37. Q327's power is waiting for Q326 to clear the west end so they can start putting it's train together. CSX 5314 will lead.

[SW]

SB mixed freight, D717 or D737, just cleared 7 Mile Rd. CSX 4225 + 2053 + 95 cars.

Q326 into Wyoming Yard at 17:37.

I was working in the yard and heard that horn getting louder and louder as it approached from the west and wondered which train it was. Kind of late, no?

[SW]

At 20:35, WB mixed freight, either D717 or 737, turned north at Plymouth. CSX 5321 + about 90 cars.
At 20:40, NB mixed freight, perhaps D702, turned east at Plymouth. CSX 837 + 746 + 4010 + 5310 + about 110 cars. Dang near impossible to count cars of two trains going in opposite directions at different speeds!
Unfortunately lately I must speculate on the train #s. Scanner is of little help. CSX trains going to / from Lake State rarely call signals, and I will often hear transmissions of 717 and 737 communicating with each other, but not with locational info. Other CSX freights seemingly call out signals less and less nowadays as well.
