CSX Train Location Updates - June 2021
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2021
Way to go Amessmann !! Did you notice that before I mentioned it? If not, am glad I did. Not to often you see a unit with stacks capped on the Plymouth Sub and you posted a photo to prove it. Another thought that just popped into my head, perhaps this is another unit soon to go to Peaker seeing 578 is already there.
Also, from the would you believe department, I have only seen seven of the UP 7300 series units built between 2005-2010 and 7327 was one of them back on 10-20-14 seen on Amtrak in Chicago on my way back to Ann Arbor.

Safe to say they are probably working Ensel now?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2021
Yup, I did as they went by. I figured that was because of fire damage but it makes sense for being in storage.
I'll have to hurry up and get the video uploaded.
Hard to say with D708 working in front of them but the engineer was adamant that he'd be out of 706's way.

Heard D705-16 @ 19:45 copying an EC1 at mp CH88 from Ensel to the east end Lake Odessa & permission to leave switch unlocked. I'm assuming this is to start his work in N. Lansing. Radio conversation was very scratchy.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2021
Q326-16 today had CSXT engines #3473 + #348, are these engines returning onto the Plymouth sub-division & that's the reason for the UP engines to be Q327-17's power tomorrow? Or, are the UP engines being towed by Q327-17? Curious to know, too, how that info was found about the UP engines.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 10:39 pmPeaker: sounds like Peaker has a contract to add DPU capabilities to some CSX power.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2021
I had heard Q326 saying "Cal Park" (??) at 06:57 ET, not sure where that is. The Broadcastify radio is picking up calls from some incredible distances this morning.Saturnalia wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 7:06 am06:05 CT / 07:05 ET: Eastbound on the CSX at Michigan City CG 124.0.
