Unread post by Raildudes dad »

GRE yard empty except for the inbound wire gons. 371 is south of them in the dark. C&M going to deliver the Babbling Brook to interchange today.

I did confirm the Babbling Brook is scheduled to return to C'ville on Oct 26th

13:35 EDT RN WAS GIVING EC 1 SOMEONE ON TRACK 1 BETWEEN GODFREY AND PLEASANT STREET. MORE TRACK WORK MAYBE? ALSO SOUNDED AS IF Z15119 WAS COMING DOWN RELATIVELY SOON. EAST TOWER WAS TALKING TO Q327. MIGHT HAVE BEEN PUTTING THEIR TRAIN TOGETHER OR COMING OUT OF THE DIESEL HOUSE. RECEPTION WAS FLACKY ON THE SCANNER IN THE CAR.

Any of my fellow Zeelanders get what train went through just after 1:00? I saw the signal on the outside of town was lit up, and as i was walking into work all I could see through the trees were a bunch of sand cars.....

Z739 at Wyoming at this time. GRE is working around town as well. They were just talking with someone about staying in the clear until they reach milepost 160. There is also a D907 on duty at Wyoming Yard. Coming out of the house with CSX 836.

Edit: C&M 7014 east by the old Meijer building just now (1455). GRE is waiting for them at the property line.

Heard something passing through Woodbury at 5:35. Sounded like it was headed toward Lake O. Only heard him through one crossing so not sure on the direction. Didn't see it this time.
