NS B71 with NS 3335 is pulling NS M20 (extra 120) to Oakwood Yard. NS 120 is ahead of them so M20/B71 is holding just west

CP501 on the Chicago line is on fire, wind is carrying it. Bound to cause disruptions today
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.

Sounds like there’s a midnight RoadRailer over the scanner.


Also heard NS B31(?) passed Wyandotte with 334 axels. No clue on direction.

Edit: Likely NS 331 to Bellevue

I just watched it go by the Fostoria cam at around 2:15 or so, heading AWAY from Toledo... It ain't going to Detroit.
