CSX 4432

CSX 6242 (GP38-2S)

6159 is the only engine facing for the Southern so expect that as the leader. 6242 probably won’t be coming back down here any time soon. It has a huge amount of problems, one of them being that the PTC completely refuses to work.

Yep, 6159 leading today

Clear of bank interlocking on the Southern Secondary 4:22 PM

The train stopped in between Maxwell Rd and Hope Rd...

And the question is why. Is there a business or operational reason why? Is this a urine break? Or is this wasting time to create overtime?

No mechanical problems to my knowledge.

Train came extremely close to de-railing inside Stavola again.

Train will be leaving Farmingdale soon. Crew is making their way back to the engine.

These guys should be very happy I'm not their boss. They would be gone.

@R&DB Trust me, this engineer is way better than the last one.

I know the conductor though. Good guy.

If only we had some of the crews from the golden days back!

Edit: We’ve definitely had better engineers down here though.

Through Farmingdale 8:08 PM

You're a big tough guy. We're all VERY impressed.
