Was hoping for the NS GP38-2 in the Operation Lifesaver paint scheme. But as my experience over the years will tell me, no surprise on the two CSX Geeps today. Guessing transit may have held them a bit longer on the Church Running Track today,

SA31 broke down in Farmingdale tonight. 4432s alerted failed again. Depending on what happens there may or may not be a rescue locomotive coming down either tonight or tomorrow. Looks like they won’t make Woodhaven tonight...

[CSX4421]

Seems like the SA38 crew arrived early and will be piloting the SA31 to Woodhaven. Quite an interesting night on the ol southern

[RailsEast]

Sycamore Ave at 0525, not sure if they are going to Browns this morning or parking at Patterson Ave.

[RailsEast]

Train is parked at Patterson Ave if anyone is interested. Look for an afternoon trip back to Browns (no crew yet this morning).

[RailsEast]

Crew onboard at 1:40 in the pm, no symbol heard yet, should be departing soon...

[RailsEast]

This will be the SA-31 this afternoon, holding for clearance from NJT.

As per a friend, PR-08 went to browns today with CSX 6228 LHF and three cars. (????)

6160 went there yesterday and only stayed for a few hours, so Im hoping this won't be the case with 6228.

[RailsEast]

Crew running early today, just saw the hind end as I crossed the line at Shrewsbury Ave. Will try to get specifics shortly...

[RailsEast]

CSX 4421, CSX 4432 with 13 for Woodhaven & one tank, approaching Pine Brook Rd at 4:25 in the pm.

Thanks for the update on today's run. I see the NS OLS geep wasn't on the Southern run again.

Thanks for the update on today's run. I see the NS OLS geep wasn't on the Southern run again.

The OLS unit was pulled out tonight; 6228 replaced. Both 5286 and 4421 were spotted in Freehold late last night, so it sounds like 5286 had a mechanical issue.

[Bracdude181]

I had a feeling 5286 wouldn't stay too long. I believe 5286 had a traction motor failure but I could be wrong. At least it replaced by one of my personal favorites :D

31 just got on the Coast Line with 4421 and 4432. I plan to chase SA-38 tonight... Good luck to those chasing 31 today!
