Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale

Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale
I think LLCX is interested to rebuild them and change some things. We'll pay the full 300,000 for them.MQT3001 wrote:We're sick of them....they're the only GE units MQT owns save for a 20 tonner & a 50 tonner.....we want them gone!

Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale
Honestly IDK. They follow whatever CSXT uses in real life to get from Plymouth to Stanley.....IDK where the line between TSCR & MQT is either.DT&I wrote:Ok well these will be added to our schedule today and you have a locomotive roster in your MQT thread correct?

Fill in the blanks:
I own ______ Subdivision(s) from Plymouth south to ________ in order to reach TSCR at Stanley. The property line is ___.
What do you want with my Locomotive Roster I haven't updated since I posted it?
Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale
NVM you connect with me from the west at Delray. We have a North South line through there, and we need yo use run through power for your trains.

Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale
All our trains will come south, drop off a train, then pick up a train and head north. Crew Change point is Plymouth, so as long as you guys don't screw us we should be able to do that with 1 crew. If need be, we can send lite power NB/SB....DT&I wrote:NVM you connect with me from the west at Delray. We have a North South line through there, and we need yo use run through power for your trains.
PS: I updated the roster, placing it in my first post in my thread

Crew Change at Plymouth at 1:00 EDT or so...conrailman75 wrote:I'll get the chief dispatcher to pass on a note to the second shift dispatcher to have one of our westbound freights out of Pittsburgh pick them up and drop them off at Lima tonight.DT&I wrote:You run trains into Stanley?

Re: MQTX Locomotive Sale
duly noted MQT, I will make sure that whenever they arrive at Dunkirk tomorrow morning that the next westbound freight thru there will pick them up and relay them to Lima.
