Anyone seen DLWR 2403?

DLWR 2403 (ex-Adirondack Scenic) is *supposed* to be on its way to Scranton. Has anyone seen it? Where is it?

RS

Don't you mean on the way to Batavia or Depew? You must be thinking DLWR is the Deleware-Lackawanna Railroad in Scranton. DLWR is Depew, Lancaster & Western RR, which is another GVT Company. Unless the unit had to go to the Scranton Shops beforehand...

Either way, this is probably another CSX transport screw-up. They did the same thing with NYS&W / FGLK #2300 back in the Summer. Took weeks for it to get to it's final destination.

No, its a DLW engine (not sure why) but its headed for service on the DL at Scranton.

RS

That would explain it! Thanks for the correction.

It was at Dewitt yesterday 4-19.

What's the routing supposed to be, via CP, NS, or NYS&W? That will help figure out what train has to move it. Then as long as they remember to set it out at the right place, it may turn up on time. I wouldn't hold my breath.

Still at Dewitt Engine service area, as of 10am this morning.

Im assuming this is the former Adirondack 4243?
is that correct?
thanks,

Yep.

Still at CSX Dewitt service ctr.

Its currently in Selkirk, Ny yard waiting to be moved I got pictures if u want to see it

Yes,by all means,please post some pic's. Thanks

Must have went east on Q382 Monday afternoon or Tuesday.

Well here we go again, it just went by Dewitt west bound on what looked like 377 but I"m not sure. 7pm.

Relax, that's part of CSX's routing since the end of classifying and closure of Frontier Hump Ops.. Q382 to Selkirk, then routed on the westbound freight that stops at Buffalo. Q377 drops in Rochester and Buffalo. I'd suspect it will be set off at Buffalo, interchanged with the NS and sent south and East via NS. The only freight that departs Dewitt Westbound is Q381 and it doesn't work at Buffalo. Q381 originates at Dewitt. The actual routing would have been approved by shipper and CSX.
