Last Friday, 08/13/10, I chased K802 northbound until it went into the siding at South Orange Heights, FL. I heard the crew/dispatcher talking about "recrewing" and having to find a spot to "pull off to." The train sat there a while then turned it's lights and crew talked about "tying up for 6 months." The crew shut off the lights. What happened? Did the crew
go over the work hour law? My CSX schedules on the internet said this train originated in Mulberry, FL. Any idea why it took so long to get up to Orange Heights or did something else happen? Thanks!
