Ep. 380: CSX Q335 @ the LITTLE DIPPER! 174 cars!

CSX's Q335 manifest is a long one on this July 27th afternoon. After slogging it from Toledo, Ohio, the train is approaching Grand Rapids, Michigan, and its terminus at Wyoming Yard. But one terrain obstacle remains: The Little Dipper.

While it does not pose a real challenge, as the dip is not very long nor very deep, but a sag in the track it is...and impressive.

To see its MUCH larger, very impressive sister, the Big Dipper, see Episode 377: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CRnErWQ1S4

Consist:
- CSX 58 [CW44AC]
- CSX 8388 [SD40-2]
- 174 cars [Mixed]
Location/Time:
- CSX Plymouth Sub, Kentwood, MI, 32nd St xing, on 7-27-14 at 14:54 EDT
