Trains and operations in Browns Yard

SA-31 with 15 today

According to Facebook, They had a derailment while working Old Bridge Chemicals. I do not know if SA-31 or SA-03 works Old Bridge Chemicals so sorry for the lack of information.

No word on what caused the derailment? Poor track perhaps? Pretty rough there…

SA31 through Jamesburg with CSX 6201 and 12 cars

Has Conrail dropped any cars for DRRR this week?

It's taken SA31 over 20 minutes to go from Helmetta to Jamesburg. 5628 can't get up the hill with 11 cars.

West through Herrod Blvd 3:48 PM after a very difficult battle up the hill in Jamesburg.

Not sure why they didn't give them a second engine. CSX 4432 and 6228 were in the yard...

Just curious as to how many locals are operating out of Browns Yard these days?

All three symbols (SA3, 22, and 31) should still be around but I'm not sure if they are still on the same schedule. I haven't seen or heard anything on SA22 in months and a few of my pals tell me it's not a Monday to Friday train anymore? Idk.

Everything is still a same. 22 is still m-f.

What is the temporary SA-31 schedule to Red Bank going to be... Tuesday / Thursday?

Edit: Answering my own post... seems to be Tuesday/Thursday.

Yep, Tues thurs. Extras can run as needed.

Looks like it's Monday/Thursday (not Tuesday).

Monday and Thursday for 31 bringing the cats up. Tuesday and Friday to lakewood for RB1, Monday and Wednesday to Freehold. (FD-1?)
