Any updates on the Roadrailer per chance? Just had a Hi-rail come through Romulus maybe 15 minutes ago going East.

Westbound at Romulus with dimmed lights on looks like he’s waiting for clearance to cross the diamond.

I have eyes on 181 so the guy who told me it was the RoadRailer was incorrect. Explains why the conductor walked the train. Local running LHF Just passed Romulus.

Local was EB NS B7J, an extra B71. Power was NS 3555. Can you provide directions and power for each of the trains you’re describing? Would help immensely, especially when verifying whether something is a road railer or a 181, for instance.

What I think is B7J returned West with 3555 at Romulus.

Also, whoever pulled up last minute stood on top of their car to photograph the local I applaud you.
