D706-06 between 01:31am/02:01am eastward reported by the DD mp CH126.3 with 200 axles. CSX engines #3211 + #738 & 47 cars. Not sure if the #738 is a DPU, he is running non-stop this morning to Detroit.[/quote]
That must be a first running non stop to Detroit. Even with only 47 cars, and Tuesday's D705 having both assigned units up front, they were split apart again this morning with one on the front and the other on the rear. And, when going by Howell at 04:50 it was the first 706-705 train to see the main line in a week, at least for one day. D90105 could not have left many cars at Brighton this morning. Never bothered getting out of bed to see the train at Howell but sounded as if they were power light it was so short..

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2021
327 working waverly
327 to clear 120th ave, fred would be stopped just west of the waverly os. with the waverly pickup, his headend
is more then likly blocking 8th ave ( one way wb , main street downtown holland, 9th st , eb one way , and then
another 2 to 4 streets going west of there, then having trouble getting air, makes for a traffic tieup in downtown
holland.
i may have missed it, at 1111a i haven't heard 327 clear any signal or east saugatuck yet?
1129a - clear pair east saugatuck
327 getting permission throught limits at 34,3 to 37.2 at 1128a
1153a - clear pair wells
1158a - 44.2 - 672 axles, 9852' - 164 cars - pickup was 43 cars at waverly
note: with 327 on duty at 500a - i wonder if they will endup tieing down 327 at new buffalo?
sawyer has 1 street crossing right in the middle of the siding they have to cut and michigan city is to short.
it's single track from mich. city to porter, and then will ns accept 327 being short on time?

After about 10 min of the train being stopped, I would have turned around and gone another way.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2021
That’s what I was thinking but I saw a couple different designations online.GP30M4216 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 9:58 amSo if I’m reading ns8401’s reports right from further up the chain, there were 7 trains on the CSXT alone at Romulus between about 3:30 and 5:15 this morning? So there IS a busy csx location in Michigan! It just happens to be in the middle of the night!
Also, I believe those 7000 series GE rebuilt a are classed as CM44AC.
At any rate NS 181 went by at about 530 so I ended up with 8 trains in roughy 2 hours and 15 minutes. I kept going to leave to head home since I was coming from work and just kept seeing yet another signal lined up...
