Yes, Q329 starts in Rougemere in Detroitland. Full list of other CSX symbols that might be helpful that's on this site: http://railroadfan.com/wiki/index.php/C ... _Manifests

Eastbound at Porter at 16:59. Came from the CSX at E Curtis... So not sure what it is. Might be coal that wasn't routed over BRC...

that was fast. thanks for the info. any suggestions on how to visually ID csx q329 when heading from rougemere to the diamond? as far as i can tell they switch out their power with q327 and maybe a couple others that work in IL. I know some dailys will use the same power both ways but does not seem to be the case with q329.

How to visually ID it? If it goes west across the diamond, it's Q329.

SD80MAC. I live in central "Detroitland" and dont make it out to Plymouth much. was hoping to get some good shots of q329 in the dearborn area and hope to ID so that my friends in Lansing can get footage of the same train on its way past the depot pulling into Ensel. I know, its kinda nerdy
