Maybe a BNSF unit on an inbound or outbound coal train? Just a guess. Not sure where you are located to be hearing it.

Q327-01 @ 10:43:00am westward Bangor's Center St crossing mp CG60.35 with CSXT engines #377 + #80 & 137 cars. Meeting Q326 at Riverside mp CG80.1 & Q326 has the same CN engines #2866 + #3211 that were on yesterday's Q327.
Sounds like Q326 is having issues with his EOT and Q327 might be assisting him with a reset when they meet up.

Q326-01 @ 11:34 reported finding on the 34th car a cap hanging under the tank car, re-attached & has the ok to continue. Next, he will meet Q327 at Riverside mp CG80.1 & have Q327 reset Q326's EOT.

That wouldn't be hard to compile if you go thru the boards since January, would be a bit tedious though.
I'd be happy to do it once the semester's over, gotta finish these last couple days tho.

While Amesssman suggests going through all four month of the Train Locations to find out, it was far faster to look at my daily log sheets. Beside that, I do not post all trains I see when others near by post the same train info seen only miles away from me.

1-06-21: V71302 to Webberville returned as G71308 but departed with a recrew as G90708 on the 8th
1-24-21: V764 to Webberville, returned as G76425 on the 26th
1-29-21: V71427 to Grand Ledge, returned as G71423 on Feb, 24th
1-31-21: V713 to Webberville, returned as G713 on Feb 4th ?
2-13-21: V47711 to Webberville returned as G76415, but left with a recrew as G097 on the 20th.
3-04-21: V81002 to Webberville returned as G76404 on the 5th
