Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
L301 had gone into Waverly before he had headed westward to Harford & Sawyer. Usually don't know what his plans are until he is returning east from siding(s) he had worked west of Bangor.

I had to re-phrase my original post about L301 going into Waverly on his return trip:railfan isaac wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 2:39 pmthanksTom49801 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 2:21 pmL301 had gone into Waverly before he had headed westward to Harford & Sawyer.

We usually don't know what his plans are until he is returning east from the siding(s) he had worked west of Bangor. We usually hear the Dispatcher calling L301 asking him where he's headed next but we may not hear L301's side of the conversation due to the radio reception in some areas west of Bangor.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
A heads up for L302-29:
L302-29 @ 14:57 Rougemere Yard/Detroit job briefing with the RN Dispatcher: CSX engine #708(?) + #(??) & 58? cars (24? loads + 34? empties) @ 3,575 tons & 4,275 feet long. He’s building his train & has work for Lansing. I couldn't hear if he has a 2nd engine, I'll see what I can find in the scanner archives & edit this post.
Unfortunately, L302's stored info was skipping in the archives. The engines, car totals, tons & footage were also skipped over in the archives.
L302-29 @ 15:38 Conductor getting on board at P Company Jct mp CH8.7 & will be departing westward.
L301-29 @ 15:49 eastward reported by the Defect Detector mp CG91.9 St Joseph, Mi with 12 axles. CSX engines #8066 + #8199 lite power.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
M510 with CSX 732 and HZRX 858 up front and mid-DPU CSX 7246 clear Plymouth - had a lot of cars for L302 on it.
HZRX 858 is for StoneCo in Lansing to replace…NIWX 539 which has been sitting out on the interchange for a couple of weeks now.

Y121-29 @ 16:18 on the Fremont sub-division mp CGC 26.0 reported having trouble keeping his engine (CSX #6137) running & is contacting the Mechanical Dept.
Y121-29 @ 16:26 contacted the Dispatcher saying they were advised the CSX #6137 is having internal engine problems & they're going to try to limp it back to Waverly - worst case scenario would be them leaving their train (not known if he has any cars) in the east leg of the Wye.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
He didn't give any specifics of what's actually wrong with the engine & at 16:39 he called the Dispatcher & said it looks like they can nurse it back into Waverly.David Collins wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 4:40 pmAny idea as to what issue they’re having?Tom49801 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 29, 2024 4:22 pmY121-29 @ 16:18 on the Fremont sub-division mp CGC 26.0 reported having trouble keeping his engine (CSX #6137) running & is contacting the Mechanical Dept.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - January 2024
L301-29 @ 18:00 eastward reported by the Defect Detector mp CG19.1 Zeeland, Mi with 42 axles. CSX engines #8066 (solo?) & 9 cars. Axle count doesn't support 2 engines & I am wondering if he left CSX engine #8199 in Holland for Y121 to use this week since Y121's engine (CSX #6137) was having mechanical issues today.
Or, the DD19.1 had a +2 axle count error and he has CSX engines #8066 + #8199 & 7 cars.
Turns out it was an axle count error. At 18:24 L301 had called Rouge saying he has 7 cars for Grand Rapids.
R597-29 @ 18:27 copied their EC1 to depart the power plant in West Olive, Mi mp CGP 1.0 & diverge onto the Fremont sub-div & head south to the Grand Rapids sub-div in Holland, Mi with BNSF engine #5619 & 129 empty coal cars & rear dpu BNSF engine #9390 & CSX engines #3293 + #3201 at the rear. He’ll take Grand Jct siding mp CG54 & tie down.
