See my previous comment. I am sorry that you do not understand my brand of humor.

Man you guys can’t take a joke.

Y290 is the second shift switcher at the east end. Normally does not leave the yard so you probably wouldn't hear them on the road channel. Any X90 series yard job is a remote control job. Remote control jobs operating in yard limits have zones consisting of certain tracks or leads. These zones exis...

NO CONTAINERS ARE INVOLVED, THE BUSINESS NEAR THE NEW SIDING IS COMPLETELY UNRELATED WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT GETTING. IT'S A FREAKING LUMBER TRANSLOAD, NEW COMPANY COMPRISED OF FORMER AMERHART PEOPLE AS MQT1223 SAID

Happens all the time. Western apples are cheap.

G801 west at Fox, running 1x1.

You can’t get a stop on an intermediate.

This radio program explains the name of Grand Elk's Gearhart yard. http://wmuk.org/post/rail-yards-new-name-sparks-curiosity I just read on a railfan website that the name of Gearhart yard has possibly been changed to Botsford. Does anybody know if this is true and if so why name change? This isn’t...

That's a completely different engine.

There will be no double stacks in TC, rest assured.

On CSX, you'd have...
P370
P371
M326 (on days it runs)
M327 (on days it runs)
C800/801 (random)

The white one was scrapped in 2013-2014. It was gone by the time I started regularly working Padnos on Y121 and Y223.

Puny train. First car is a MOW flat with a backhoe on it. Do you ever see the huge 326s, or do you only ever comment on the abnormally small ones? I grew up near Fargo, ND, where BNSF’s northern transcon mains cross. Dozens of trains a day and every one 100+ cars. Even the local shortline usually r...

326 under the I-94 overpass at Stevensville. Did not see power

Good point, I would guess they could use Kilgore if needed.

Correct, the only place they can turn power is on the wye in Elkhart yard or the wye in Grand Rapids.

You will not see L301 at New Buffalo, as they only go as far as Sawyer.

Y106 west over 28th St in Grand Rapids 11:45, 9 cars.
