Rockland Branch Discussion

Seems to corroborate what’s been said in these last few pages; they knew after the barge stopped that relying on one shipper would not be sustainable in the long run. I wish them best of luck.

All of the current doom and gloom aside, does anyone have a good idea of how often and when PO-3 (or former PO-3. L077 I guess is what CSX is calling it now?) goes to Brunswick?

Generally Monday/Thursday, same days Midcoast goes there.

Thank you NHV 669- any idea of typical timeframes it gets out of RIgby and comes back?

The L077 interchange with Midcoast tends to be a midday operation in Brunswick. It’s hard to put an exact time on it but generally if you’re there between 11am-2pm you’re likely to see something.

As for today, CSX dropped several hoppers in Brunswick sometime between noon and 3pm. I don’t believe Midcoast operated today so hopefully will catch them tomorrow.

2310 just went light engine through Warren WB about an hour ago.

And back east through Bath at 13:16 with 15 empties.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like they probably are out of Rigby mid-late AM-ish and back mid-late afternoon-ish on the days they run.
