CSX OCS October 2022

Unread post by SD80MAC »

Sounds like the CSX OCS P001 is currently in Barr yard in Chicago, positioned to go east. Word is they will travel to North Baltimore, then to Columbus, then to Toledo, then Detroit, then back to Chicago. I haven't heard if the return trip from Detroit to Chicago will involve going via Grand Rapids or not.

Someone needs to tell Heinrich’s that MSU, while a 27 point underdog, will win by 28

GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

Reported out of Columbus, OH this morning. Running via Toledo and Detroit to Grand Rapids, so expect a mid-evening, probably after-dark arrival into Grand Rapids.

I wonder if they will take the Lincoln at Carleton to avoid having to wye the train upon arrival in Detroit? (Not that it matters to me - I’m over here near Grand Rapids where the headlight in the dark photos will be greatly enhanced by the fall colors blooming forth this week 😂 😂)

You are, bring it from work
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.
