Thank you for the update, Alex. Got quite a few disappointed people now, especially from the engine description that was given, & I had posted in Bangor Chat there isn't going to be an ethanol train so that the guy who has been waiting track side at Sawyer can go home.Saturnalia wrote: ↑Sat Apr 01, 2023 8:08 pmThat's because Kaden was being a jerk.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - April 2023
Man, you really got me as I was hoping they arrive in GR by 10pm today since your post was at 5:12pm ET or CT time. Would be at least 4-5 hours to reach GR from Porter.
On a different note from a report/video in Grand Rapids from a railfan who saw L302, it looks like they brought in 5-6 cars of boulders or crushed rock or sand(?) in CSX Gondolas. What I “assume” to be boulders or crushed rock
Credit to the YT video and the creator: L302 https://youtu.be/lkNPcIYVE0c
We could get another rerouted train on the GR or Plymouth Sub until that derailment tracks in Ohio are repaired

I’m just calling it how I see it.
I get that it’s April Fools, but like SD80MAC said, keep it out of the TLUs. People watch these and will go out based on what gets posted. Total jerk move that ended up with people spending lots of time and money waiting for a train that didn’t exist.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Sun Apr 02, 2023 7:15 amI don’t think it’s very nice that you’re on here calling people names Alex.

12:05, M326 at Waverly, Holland. Both units are CW40-8s and the second one still has its Conrail style red class lights.
Moving slow eastbound, not sure if they’re having problems or what.

M326-02 @ 12:23 eastward reported by the DD mp CG19.1 Zeeland, Mi with with a chopped up radio report that should have reasaid 380 axles. CSX engines #7868 + #7929 & 92 cars.
The reason for his slowing was due to his PTC indicating he had a red signal up ahead & he had asked the Dispatcher if there was anything ahead of them & there wasn't. Cause for his PTC indication is unknown.
