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.

Review:

EB CP 140-29 has CP 8797/BNSF 5950
Behind it is…
EB CP 244 w CP 9722/CP 810
EB CP 140-30 with the CP/CSX up front and mid DPU CSX

NS 181 is east of Romulus stopped w an air hose issue.

Now over in Swanton, Ohio and Monroe-bound, NS 880, loaded coal tren has BNSF 9717 leading another BNSF. https://flic.kr/p/2mZN9CM

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.
