D707 west at Elmdale at 1249. It sounds like their are track workers out there doing some work. 707 had a 10mph restriction over what sounded like the east end switch.

+1 JT

Didn't see the train, but heard z151 was 8000 horses (2SDs+1GP) and 10,000 feet. Got to feel good to get back to work and start clearing out the backlog...

I don't know if they did or not. Heard 1900, but that could have been on duty at Baldwin or farther north...

If it did it snuck out unereported early or ran very late. I was listening for it on my way from the airport at about 8:50 till I fell asleep after midnight. Never heard a peep on the radio and the EAS's at Fox, Elmdale, and Lake O were all red.

It didn't leave between 19:30 and 21:30, because I was around the yard. We went to see it but ever heard from it, ended up with Amtrak and Q327...only power around besides yard stuff was two sets of BNSF 6-axles, one went west on Q327-29, one east on Q334-30. Interesting.
