Re: NS and CP Train Location Updates 2024
The NS heritage units getting new paint. Wow. Time flies. Will they all get new paint? Kind of surprised they didn't just become ubiquitous black NS when it was time for a paint refresh.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - April 2024
This. This makes the most sense. This is the way. Very easy to sneak a newer date in there when the entire symbol has an administrative precedent for a change. Destination change or not.

About 10-12 years go when I was riding frequently it was normal for all of the Michigan trains to have power at each end.

Re: Solar eclipse in Ohio
I -69 was congested to capacity but mostly fluid coming and going. A few bog downs near Fort Wayne each way but other than that it was fine. Much better than trying to cross the Ohio on eclipse day in Evansville in 2017.

Re: What is this track?
It is most likely a split rail de-railer. It's purpose to put rolling stock on the ground rather than on the mainline in the event the stock is running away or otherwise moving with out proper track authority. It is more effective than other styles of de-rail devices that just sit on top of the rail...

Re: Solar eclipse in Ohio
Absolutely. We will be traveling to somewhere as close to the center of the path of totality as we can get. Staked out several locations within one days drive. Will make a final determination day of based on the weather.

Re: Would You Rather?
Would you rather own one pair of shoes or one coat? Coat. For sure. As long as it was black and I could wear it for work. Gotta have lots of shoes. Shoes for every occasion. Biking, Hiiking, walking, running, skiing, church, driving. etc etc etc. Would you rather your hair turn brilliantly white or...

Re: Fun Friday TLU Poll
I like the Amtrak updates but find the CSX the most useful as it is the line that runs through my hometown. The most likely place for me to see a train on days when I am at home. Before the superscanner I monitored my portable scanner all day when I was around and posted any tidbits I heard. Often t...

Later taken over by the lake Odessa area chamber of commerce. They stocked it with some brochures for a while. Then filled it with jun...
