Oh

I was neither of those folk but good some people were out train watching

Also saw a man with his 4 yr old kid waiting at the tracks with me

Saw a man with a dog ask me “You watching for a train!”

has started a new topic: Question about CP 62 (Canadian Pacific boxcar)

heading out on a bike ride, GDLK just went by southbound.

The DJJX gondolas currently are worn but usable. Lots of them are seen at Padnos at Grand Rapids

Who knows

Louis Padnos car enroute from the builder it appears....Nice to see and I have to wonder...will the scrap loaders at Padnos be a lil more careful loading these or will they beat the crap out of them like the rest?

having an ops session on the layout today

i hear a woot woot, going to patio to investigate

perfect timing on GDLK

They are now rolling northbound.

2 hours down at Endeavor eh? interesting, maybe swapping out a crew that didn’t have many hours to work, who knows with them as of late.

GDLK is sitting at the 133rd ave crossing in Wayland. Been there for almost 2 hours.

Okay, I plan on getting GDLK

This is basically my view, but with some added leaves as of late: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihdpywCS5iQ

haven’t yet, should be around home for the next few hours at least so should be able to spot it.

Do you hear anything Z for GDLK?

I did see a few bike riders around 8pm at 68th St

i’m surprised you were early as well as you seemed to leave approx when the train was supposedly leaving ensel, but with it not going by Mulliken until 10:53pm, tren was indeed late.

I figured I was late if anything. Not early.

appears the tren arrived on the scene in Sunfield about 1 hour after I biked through.

#2 B II BCG&A

You can usally see the searchlight in Woodbury from Sunfield even though it is 4 miles away. The intermediates 2 miles away are approach lit but Woodury is continuously illuminated even though it is an intermediate. Both sets of lights at Sunfield are approach lit as is Mulliken.

no headlights or signals visible to the east (normal). Green signal at woodbury (also normal with unoccupied blocks to the west).

cruised up to Sunfield and back. no choo choo

hard to tell, but it’s at least either at ensel somewhere west of it no further than lake o

jetlink - sounds like L302 might be out there. let me try to check

Any tren approaching my territory?

I was out biking near you at the same time you were out Andy. Rode down Clyde park by 68th st about 7:45 or so and continues south.

Time for bikey

Waited about 75 minutes on the pedestrian bridge and bike down to the 68th St waiting and went home

I went home

I saw the woot woot

Partly

I thought the same JT, and have somehow restrained typing my responses

So many ways this could be responded to...
