^ this CSX grain train along with a handful of others off of LSRC and the one from Grand Ledge last week have been going to the southwest via BNSF (Cicero, IL).
Locations have included:
Summerfield, TX
Plainview, TX
Joel, TX
Etter, TX
Clovis, NM
There's some decent drought conditions that seems to be driving a need for Michigan feed corn.
a return train, BNSF X-ETTCSX2 was thru Galesburg, IL at 15:38 central (Naperville, IL at 19:56) yesterday with CSX 4745 leading and CSX 966 as rear DPU. This train is returning from Gavillon in Etter, TX and is supposedly billed for one of the elevators in MI.
Train came into Wixom as G70612 in March.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - April 2024
Heads up, something to watch out for.
From a source of mine we got a W085 coming to Grand Rapids with UP 8483 leading, it’s a Herzog Ballast train. It’s Down on the St Louis Line right now. Not sure exactly what route it'll take but I’m sure it will come up via Barr.
