Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
17:14 CT: Eastbound by Michigan City. Not a normal sounding horn. Could be fouled, or could be something cool. No visual.

Re: Amtrak Train Location Update/Heads Up Thread 2024
I noted today that #365 had a P42, #60 IIRC, on the rear. Gotta love the 25+ year old battle wagons backing up 5 year old power

That date stenciled is the last date it was inspected per the waiver, which is typically required every two years.

Re: Unusual Woodchip Hopper Numbers
The FRA accepts applications on restricted service for cars over 50 years old. Based on the car type and service, they will issue waivers with specific requirements to the car owner to continue to use them.

Re: GLC Active locomotives
Is this RR ever going to fix their loco issues, or lease/buy something, as this seems to be a recurring problem with these guys?? They don’t seem to have a super high out of service rate to me, especially considering the age of some of their locomotives. Things break, so long as they have enough to...

Re: Amtrak Train Location Update/Heads Up Thread 2023
354 was 4 hours late into Pontiac. It seems the delay was west of New Buffalo. And this morning 351 has not left pontiac yet, 45 minutes late already and counting. Train 354 struck and killed a pedestrian in Michigan City. At 11:55 CT, eastbound train empties for Decatur are crossing Trail Creek in...
