E800-07 @ 06:34:37am westward Bangor's W. Monroe St crossing mp CG60.72 with BNSF engines #6072 + #5731 + & 130 empty coal cars.

I’m guessing that empty dropped off the two CSX engines at Grand Junction. They are sitting at the west end behind a coal train in siding, but not tied on. Hopefully a crew will arrive there to take the train east before the rain arrives.

I'm looking for the coal train you see in Grand Jct Siding & can't find him on rewind on the Bangor cam. N800-09 had tied down in Riverside around 5am this morning.
Found him, the coal train inside Grand Jct had arrived Bangor yesterday @ 6:37pm with BNSF engines #6149 + #6337 & 128 loaded coal cars (I was away from my computer around that time for a while). I'll search the scanner archives to find out who he is. That was N801-08.

Hmm... d80109 was supposedly on duty, then got annulled this morning, so I dunno what's up with when you'll see the coal load go north.

Well that’s a bummer. At least there is still 326.

I'm wondering if they'll eventually find a D crew today, especially with N801-08 tied down inside Grand Jct & N800-09 tied down in Riverside, too.
