CSX Train Location Updates - April 2024

[pudgy]

It was my choice to show them this way over the G076 designation as I despise using the generic numbers when possible.

I opted to handle this with two sections on my spreadsheet, one for the symbol they used when running past us, and one for the symbol they had going in or out of Plymouth. Speaking of, does anyone know what G076-02's symbol was upon departure from Plymouth? I presume they had gone south already.

G07602 looks to become G75702 for Walbridge and then across the B&O for Chicago. Doesn't appear to have moved yet from where it was parked by the GR crew.
