CSX Train Location Updates: 5/30/10

Unread post by Jochs »

Q327-29 with CSXT 8827 is currently going west on #2 track at Grey. There is a restricting signal on #2 track, and the train will have to go max 15 m.p.h. to St. Joseph, as the next signal is at the west end of double track.

Apparently, X500-28 met Q327-29 at Wells, and X500-28 was recrewed there.

CP X50028 has CP 8840 in the lead, east clear Thornapple River. At least they are calling signals, unlike Q33429 yesterday or Q33430 today. - 10:20am.

Thanks for the call on 500. Yeah, I hate when my scanner isn't working and I can't hear them calling signals. Image

Same for todays Q33530 train, CSX 5292 8098 and 98 cars if I counted right, by Howell @ 10:40 When 334 & 335 meet, neither will know the other is coming until they get those "approach medium/ medium approach signals.

Nice clean power on 334 and 500 today. 334 appears to have received a recent paint job as well as a horn from a gevo.

As of 12:05pm, Railcanon says Q33530 is in the Cash block, CP X50028 going through downtown Lansing, and Q33430 near Williamston. I gave him a heads up on Q327 per your post Bob.

Q335 into wyoming at 1420, BRC traffic into 30-something power to 41, sounds like it'll be the power for tonight's Q327.
