Re: Conrail Train Location Updates 2022
Well, for once I happened to have a piece of paper and a pen when RR-25 passed by today. He cleared Inkster Road crossing at 11.53AM EST, headed north. I'd heard him headed down about half an hour earlier. Consist when I saw him was as follows:
NS 5212 and NS 5224 (!)
Four covered hoppers
One center-beam flat loaded with glass slabs
So, for the second day running, the Guardian run had TWO locomotives on it.

I saw him crossing Racho Rd yesterday. I was thinking I hadn't seen them run in a while.Eric Berger wrote: ↑Tue Feb 08, 2022 4:18 pmWell, for once I happened to have a piece of paper and a pen when RR-25 passed by today.

Re: Conrail Train Location Updates 2022
Heard a horn at about 13.15 coming up the Lincoln Secondary, so I headed over to see what was happening. I was thinking perhaps an I-150 was coming, as that's around the time he usually shows up when going that way, and the horn sounded like what I usually hear from that. Was I WRONG! It was instead RR-25, returning from the glass run! Consist was as follows:
NS 5267 and NS 5008
Two covered hoppers
One centerbeam car loaded with glass slabs
So, it appears as though they're now running two engines on the local on that line, as that's the third time this week I've seen that.

Sorry I didn’t see this earlier, RR-61 went to Lincoln Yard and eventually tied down in Brownstown down the Lincoln.

Re: Conrail Train Location Updates 2022
Word is the RR-61 was a relief job. Given the time and direction, sounds identical to the RR-3. Maybe someone with some more inside info can clarify....
Re: Conrail Train Location Updates 2022
RR-3, NS 5267 was working in Taylor, the 5267 would be long hood forward going south.

Yard Hump on weekends, US steel the rest of the week or wherever they decide to send them. They’d go everywhere. Livernois Sunday and Monday, Rouge Thurs, Fri, Sat.
They’d do the Brownstown run Thursday and Friday Morning and the next 3 days are anyone's guess. Keeps it non monotonous if anything. This was a year ago, but I doubt it changed a whole lot.
