From a couple days ago....March 10:
Q326 clear Bangor Camera 12:27pm with a pair of GEVOs and 146 cars.
Trailing unit on Q326, CSX 212 is a new unreported repaint from YN2. Painted sometime since September when last seen.
(Looks like it was much more recent than September, based on shininess)

384 by 95 at 2335. Sounds like they lost communication with their eot so they're 30mph now. They also said they need verification of their last car number or axle count from a dd to give up the blocks.
