I had an opportunity to spend about an hour in Vincinnes Wednesday evening
between 6 and 7pm. Here's what came through:
G073
Evansville to Terre Haute turn. Headed south with loaded grain hoppers.
J710
Washington Switcher. Headed east with empty coal hoppers.
Q596 CSX-CSX(CR) (sorry, no numbers)
Nashville to Chicago (Barr Yard or BRC-Clearing Yard?)
Q514 UP4472-UP3504-UP4231
Nashville to Avon
Q588 SOO6016-NS8821
Nashville to CP-Bensenville
I hurried up to Haley and caught Q514 and Q588 coming through there, too.
Both trains got clearance through Haley without delay, though the St. Louis
Line dispatcher told Q514 that they would be about 6 times out getting into
Avon Yard. I think they were eventually stopped at CP-39 (Greencastle).
There were parked trains ahead of them at Fillmore and MP 29.
Before Q514 arrived at Springhill, the Jacksonville SB dispatcher asked the
crew if they were qualified to Avon, which they said they were. There was a
Q651 coming out of Avon with a former CSX crew with CR pilots. A van was
waiting at Haley to pickup the pilots.
