WB L302 just cleared Plymouth diamond. CSX 5418 + 3280 + 74 cars.
Just as quickly as I hit the reply button did the signal at EE Brighton change from Red to Yellow, then to Green. L303 is working Trowbridge as of 16:54.

Anyone know if L303 is done working Trowbridge yet?

598 cut away and put their power in bk siding and cabbed to the headend of 326 at
