Totally understand that! Always hard to keep tabs on the coal trains. I'll likely try for either Bangor or Grand Junction (or if I have ample time somewhere around Fennville).Tom49801 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 8:59 pmWill keep tabs on his return trip, don't know when that'll be, could be tomorrow, could be in 2 days, just never know. Where will you try to see him at?

"Typically", he should be passing by the Holland Depot mp CG25.3 about 45 minutes after copying his EC1 from West Olive.
(Correction made to the engine order after seeing him at Holland)

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - November 2021
E801-01 is holding the main at Grand Jct to cut away his CSX power & put those engines into the east end of Grand Jct siding mp CG54. Q327 will follow E801.
E801-01 is having PTC issues.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - November 2021
Just because they can only unload 8 boxcars at a time, doesn’t mean they can’t leave offspots either behind the building or on the spur itself. Did that many times myself.JTS wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 10:04 amThat's interesting seeing as how Lowes can only handle 8 boxcars max.
