Heard the RN say “no, he’s not on the property yet. The NS is having a problem with a switch at Porter.”

Must be referring to P370 as train tracker still shows him sitting at Porter.

Then the RN called Q327 to get an exact location so he could get a cab to take the crew back to GR.

Ns replaced the porter switch on sunday. P371 was the last train over the old switch.
