In the interesting car department, noted a two-tone PAN-AM Railways boxcar, a Southern Pacific-lettered boxcar, a flexi-TTX autorack, and the two loads of power poles, not the typical utility height ones on single cars but the longer-distance transmission style ones requiring buffer flats.Q32622 east at Bangor at 12:52pm with CSXT 95 leading CSXT 702.

Why would they load scrap only half way? I would think it would be better to load them all the way!GP30M4216 wrote:11:55 hrs: D700 knocking down Zeeland EB behind CSXT 4026 with 17 cars, half loaded scrap gons and the other half a mix of tanks, covered hoppers and boxcars.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates February 2018
Q38520 with 7109? leading is passing Green Oak.
Pretty sure I heard somebody else's horn ten minutes earlier, (K5LA, heard the approach and pass) but if there was somebody, they didn't say anything. Same voice on the radio as K808 again.
442 axles, 6350 feet.
