NB mixed freight just turned east at Plymouth. UP 7070 + KCS 4607 + 13 autoracks, 4 hoppers, 102 double stacks, and 19 singles. Maybe Q132?

[donnieland]

hi tom
went by the mow crew spreading ties yesterday stopped just east of the 1st road east of the 19.1 detector.
power was a mow truck pulling the gons spreading ties as the crew went west. i believe this is the same
crew that dumped ties by me today. there wasn't the sound of a freight engine, just a reg truck motor.
was on the phone with spectrum at the time and only turned to look when i heard the ties hitting the ground.
only saw the gons as they pasted.

Thank you, Donnie, maybe they're calling out the hi-railer truck's number? The DD19.1's 30 axle count is now confusing.

[kd_1014]

I believe that’s the MOW truck’s number. I remember them calling 9014 back in early May when they were doing the work in Wyoming Yard.

Q326-37 arrived thru Grandville @ 14:01. What's the speed limit thru a slow order? Seems they are either crawling along or doing 30 or so. Also any new info on D705?
