CSX Train Location Updates March 2018

[justin_gram]

17:53 - Eastbound coal loads by Vine. 3 BNSF leaders. SD70ACe, SD70MAC executive, and an ES44.

Sounded like a westbound, prolly empties, went thru Vine at about 18:30.

[SW]

WB Q241 just turned south at Plymouth. CSX 7889 leading.

[BL2-1843]

Q38525 by Fowlerville at 21:00. Don't plan on hearing them on the radio clearly, if at all. 385 had to hold at Howell for awhile waiting for D708 who is going back west from Fowlerville with only light power. Even with only 19 cars they were forced to turn around and go home without finishing their work for lack of time, leaving their train there.

[Dan Cluley]

The radio was breaking up badly, but I believe they are going to hold 385 on the east side of Lansing to make a rolling meet with 384.

[Jochs]

P370-27 is currently going through Watervliet. Sounds like IDTX 4621 leading.

[Dan Cluley]

385 at the east end of Trowbridge at 22:08

NS 1074 in the lead?

Yes.

It’s gonna be there for a while though. It’s waiting for Q384...

[Dan Cluley]

384 by Ensel, and EC1 given up at 00:06.
Switch just lined for 385 to head west from Ensel.

The EL unit is in the lead with another NS trailing.

Edit.
Trailing unit is 9149, train is clear of Lansing at 00:16

D707 has 5241 & 5295, and is westbound out of Lansing at 00:40.

Q385 past CH143 Russ's folly at 1:58am, NS1074 Lackawanna Huritaj leading.

[cnw8835]

At 0554, D707 was eastbound out of GR at mile 146 and D700 was departing west from Wyoming Yard at Lamar.

[Schteinkuh]

Everyone keep an eye out for NS 1074 on Y106 this morning. I'm at Judd in Grand Rapids waiting for them to leave.

[SD80MAC]

Y106 departing Wyoming yard now with NS 1074 (Lackawanna unit) long hood forward.

[MQT1223]

If anyone sees a big Environtronics truck with green paint, that’s me trying to see 106 lol

[Mark F]

Y106 with NS 1074 just left Altogas in Alto heading back westbound. Short hood forward.

[rsinoms]

Y106 working just west of fox, NS1074 leading. D700 nearing Jenison EB, sounds like SD40-3 for power. All at 1:09pm.

Edit: Q326 is headed back to the yard after wyeing power. Slow approach, Godfrey.

[rsinoms]

Y106 with the NS1074 is tying on to there train at advance packaging and getting ready to head west back to the yard at 2:16pm

[~Z~]

Ns1074 came in on y106 into GR. Heading downtown to spin their power, and likely going out on q384 now tonight instead of q327.

[MQT1223]

Q384 is confirmed. Will be running solo.

[MQT1223]

Crew is assembling what I believe to be Y297 down here at the east end. A GP38-3, two empty Gons for Joe Brown, a loaded centerbeam, a sand hopper and a white hydrochloric acid hopper. All for the Acme lead maybe?
