Saw one of the Geeps (I think 102 - it was late, ha) headed west through Fairfield Metro around 1:30am Saturday with a string of ballast cars. Anyone know if those were the ones from the end of the Waterbury branch that seem to sit there in perpetuity?
Change at Bridgeport for service to Derby-Shelton, Ansonia, Seymour, Beacon Falls, Naugatuck and Waterbury
The siding track near Devon, is were P&W leaves loaded ballast cars and picks up empties for Tilcon to be loaded.
MN's PMMO switcher is usually the switcher picking up the cars for Highbridge MofW and leaving empties.
If Conductors are in charge, why are they promoted to be Engineer???

AMMO with #102 for power was towing BL14CG #401 up to Harmon this afternoon as seen in Philipse Manor at 12:04 PM, at 1:33 PM AMMO came back southbound with BL20GH #129 for the replacement of #401.
#102 was at MO today, yesterday morning at 11:45 AM in Greystone BL14CG #402 was towing 6 new M8 cars from Harmon, 4 S cars and two replacement cars for a pair. The two cars are replacements for cars wrecked in Bridgeport, those cars are the same ones which I saw on CSX X386 on Sunday November 23.
At 3:19 PM Metro North GP35R #106 for power was seen in Tarrytown towing a dead Maxi-Bomb set with P32AC-DM #205 as it was headed up to the Harmon shops this afternoon. User Greg Grice reported #106 running lite south from Harmon at 4:10 PM.
