was where I would see my first train on this Saturday morning. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see what railroad was hauling these TOFCs nor was I able to get a symbol.
However, the trains that I did get to see are as follows:
NS 11J @ 7:40- thirty-seven empty autoracks were taken west behind NS 9647 and PRR 8363 (ex-CR 6133).
CSX symbol unknown @ 8:05- had CSX 4814 and CSX 4502 bringing a general merchandise train east off the Trenton Line.
NS 21M @ 8:10- would have NS 9132 and PRR 6764 (ex-CR 5503) bringing twenty-nine cars of TOFCs, estimated length 6,400 feet, west to CP 51. The dispatcher told him he would hold "...for two, possibly three eastbound trains..."
NS 214 @ 9:00- Shades of western railroading! 214 would have UP 5477 as its leader, followed by UP 5198 and BNSF 4972.
NS 212 @ 9:10- had NS 9610, NS 6652 and NS 6709 as its motive power for a combination autoracks and intermodal mix.
With my scanner batteries running low and grass to be cut, it was time for me to go.
