Hey Guys, there is an X451 coming North on the Holly Sub per the dispatcher. Don't know where he is at the moment, but he will be meeting a Southbound in Holly or at Durand. The southbound might be 502 judging by the conversation I am hearing.

Hey KC8RBK,

Yeah, 514 was the one that just went by...

Southbound 514 with 32 doublestacks, 2 CNs (didn't get the numbers) by Linden at 4:10pm. The suspected train I posted above was not 502, but 514. Too early for 502 now that I think about it more.

By The Way, when I post 514, I can never see the entire train, only from just barely half way up from where I am....so any empty well cars on the tail, or anywhere else in the train, I won't be able to see, unless of course I catch him in town or elsewhere.
