(erielack) Fw: NYSW List - CSX/NYSW Train Update

["Joshua" <mail_@_joshuakblay.com>]

SD45-2s potentially coming to the Southern Tier and the S&U.  I have no
evidence as of yet of -2s on the Syracuse branch, but if they do indeed
come up, better late then never, close to 30 years after EL.  These are
part of the annual CSX detour trains on NYS&W, earlier and more numerous
this year.

And the most interesting train:

Q404-06 .... BNSF 7830/NS 1703/NS 1704, with 120 cars. If this train 
runs via the NYSW today/tonight, keep your eyes open. the two trailing 
units are NS SD45-2's, ex Conrail, nee- Erie Lackawanna units, easily 
identifiable by their long carbodies and huge 5000 gallon fuel tanks. Not 
sure if the crew will deliver the train and take the power back to Oak 
Island, as the NS 1700's are usually assigned there as hump engines, 
or simply take the train via the River line or in fact run the NYSW with 
the power intact.
    As I am in Selkirk, on duty at 4:45PM for Q433(Selkirk to Oak Island 
general freight), i will have no way of keeping up on this train, so i ask 
that someone keep their scanner on "just in case". Thanks, and have a 
good afternoon/evening.
