Hw went eastward as far as Plymouth & if I had heard correctly, that's as far as the crew was qualified to go. Had heard the crew telling their taxi driver to meet them behind the warehouses (I'm not familiar with that territory and I don't know what warehouses the crew was referring to). Look back to a post I had made last night.

R598-22 has BNSF engine #9183 & if he has both of the CSX engines used for the loaded coal train helpers, wondering if the CSX #797 will be left behind to go to Chicago on Q327-23 tomorrow for repairs since it had failed yesterday.
