First southbound train was 101 Wednesday and it took well over 24 hours and three crews to complete the trip. I believe they had a police vehicle with RR police officers protecting each crossing. I think most of the signal system was out aouth of Saybrook which is not far south of St. Augustine. They had a monster train too.
