From CPRS:
Effective January 2, 2010, NS is changing the current 938/939 trains and
adding an additional pair of trains. The changes are as follows:
#938 will handle Albany autos (Ford) and Albany intermodal. The Albany
autos will be set off at Delanson to be handled by the SNY to the Northeast
Industrial Park in Voorheesville. 938 will then continue to Albany with the
intermodals to be spotted for unloading.
#939 will operate out of Albany with intermodals as they currently do but
run through to Delanson and lift the empty auto racks from the SNY.
Of course, the SNY will coordinate their crew to be at Delanson to meet
#939 and wait there for the loaded autos off #938.
A new pair of trains will be established, #934 and #935.
#934 will operate with Pan Am autos and Ayer intermodals. They will change
crews at Mohawk (probably Alplaus Road) or Elnora depending on traffic
patterns on each day. NS power will run through on these trains to Ayer. I
assume PAS will continue to call this train MOAY.
#935 will be a direct connection with AYMO handling empty auto racks and
intermodals from Ayer with NS run through power. Again, only a crew change
with CP at Mohawk.
"Not sure of what times these trains will be operating."
