Amtrak P371-01 @ 07:28:20 westward Bangor’s Center St cam crossing mp CG60.35 (2 passengers On at the station mp CG60.5)

Q327-01 @ 07:30 westward reported by the DD mp CG44.2 with 240 axles & 3,380 feet long. UP engine #8249 & 57 cars & rear dpu UP engine #5385.

Q327-01 @ 07:50:52 westward Bangor's N. Center St crossing cam mp CG60.35

Note: Q327 is only identifying as "327" on the radio. Hoping the St Joseph Bridge Tender will say his full train i.d. so that we'll know if this is "Q327" or the new designation "M327".

Amtrak P371-01 @ 08:17 westward reported by the DD mp CG91.9 with 16 axles & 309 feet long. IDTX #4629 & 3 SuperLiners.

Q327-01 @ 08:50 westward reported by the DD mp CG91.9 with 240 axles & 3,467 feet long. UP engine #8249 & 57 cars & rear dpu UP engine #5385.

The St Joseph Bridge Tender had i.d'd Q327 as being a Q train & the crew didn't correct him. So, it appears the Q trains have not been changed to being known as "M" trains.

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.
