Last time I checked, you don't get holiday pay on locals or road trains. Only yard jobs.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - May 2021
Well that’s rough. Do they give anything extra for working a holiday at all?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - May 2021
D705-28 was by Howell at 04:25 this morning with 98 cars. 982 leading, 901 on the rear. Quite a few stone loads near the rear. I see there is nothing reported on todays D706-28 which is normal seeing I am still looking for the unit behind 938 on yesterdays D705. And yes Tom, I would not have known what the lead unit was either until D705 was almost to Lansing and the RN call the train with a very clear voice giving the lead unit number of 938. Nothing except occasion static from the train.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - May 2021
D706-28 @ 13:35 heard in Grand Rapids with Rouge saying "grab your other engine from the Mouse". A few minutes earlier, I thought I had heard "5503" or maybe "6503". The scanner archives for this time slot will be available in a few minutes & I'll check that out. At least, we didn't miss D706 while the Broadcastify Scanners were off lineBL2-1843 wrote: ↑Fri May 28, 2021 10:05 amD705-28 was by Howell at 04:25 this morning with 98 cars. 982 leading, 901 on the rear.

Update at 14:28, it's the CSXT #5305 and should be paired with the CSXT #938. He's still getting himself together in Grand Rapids.
