SBS Today

Unread post by patrick »

Caught the SBS in Saginaw today. The train from midland had the 2052 and about 30 plus cars. Its horn is awful. Three chime POS that only has one chime working. Also, at the same time, the 310 job from Bay City came in with the LSRC 1280. it had around 10 cars. both trains stoped clear of the yard awaiting clearance into the yard. Nice to be able to see the trains both at the same time.

Patrick, curious if you've had a chance to figure things out with the ops in Saginaw. Does SBS have a yardmaster in Saginaw? What about a yard job? Or is everything still being switched in Bay City.

I actually have not had a chance to figure things out. I believe the SBS has a yard master as this is what i was told though by an unreliable source. 310 job works bay city as the old Y122. The sbs i have yet to see switch jobs as i believe the road freights switch their own trains out. I'm gonna watch it close in the coming weeks and i'll learn what I can and report back.
