CR on the Southern Secondary

Winter just will not let go this year; the crossing at Shrewsbury Ave. has been a mess for the past 3 months...gates either stuck down, or not operating at all. Today was another 'not at all' day....

West of Sycamore Ave..........

Train at Patterson Ave., look for a trip up the Coast Line this afternoon.

Any reports of SA-31 today?

Just got a text message from my buddy saying he saw a big freight train going south through Red Bank right now. Not sure on the power or how many cars are in the consist

Clear on the Southern at 5:28 in the pm; should be by me in about 10 minutes, will post power & consist shortly......

Very nice train today; CSX 4423, CSX 4412 + 19. Looks like 16 Woodhavens, 2 gons, 1 tank, approaching Maxwell Rd. in Eatontown at 5:50 in the pm.

Thanks for the updates on the train today. They did push back the sign up time for the crew on Thursdays, correct?

I don't have any inside info, Stephen, but they have been running 60-90 minutes later for the past few months, versus last year.
Eastbound through Shrewsbury at 0320 hours.

Another nice train....CSX 4423, NS 5283 + 18; 1 brick for Extech, 1 tank, 16 Woodhavens, approaching Maxwell Rd. in Eatontown at 5:40 in the pm.

Thanks to all for the updates on the train today. As mentioned, another good sized train for the Southern.

Any new business opening/thinking of using the Southern Secondary as a means of supply transport?
