Any mention of 302?

L302 had his job briefing at 2:58pm but the radio reception for his side of the conversation was bad & all I could determine was he has CSX engine #581 leading & was starting to build his train.

Rail train south at Riley St. Holland 5:24 PM approx.

Any mention of 302?

17:54 - L302 thru WE Brighton with 581, 5379, and 4057 leading 91 cars. Calling CH 51 at 17:58.
Two ex-C&NW hoppers with coal, and lots of MOCX hoppers towards the end, in addition to three Cryo-Trans reefers.
ZVBX 625751 and 18021 up front, and two PDNX gondolas numbered 625621 and 625625. Similar style to the ZVBX hoppers which is interesting considering the similar numbers.
