Your assumption is correct. Warrior Ridge and Pennsylvania 120 went to Pittsburgh on train 43 Wednesday and returned to Philly on 42 Thursday.

What time did the train leave SS? I got there at 3pm and nothing was there

All 9 cars were pulled out to the yard about 30 minutes after we arrived.

CANNON BALL, DOVER HARBOR, GEORGIA 300, J. PINCKNEY HENDERSON and WISCONSIN leave town tonight on 67 (25) for WAS.

CITY OF SPOKANE, DEARING and MOUNT VERNON will be on 67 (26) going to WAS.

I think NEW YORK CENTRAL 3 and BABBLING BROOK will be on 449 (26) or 449 (27) to ALB.

I'm parked outside the locomotive shop at Southampton Street with locomotives 39, 44, 105 and 102 idling on either side of me. Can't seem to get a good signal for Thursday night football, but looking forward to a nice dinner in about 30 minutes.

I saw a westbound special through Elkhart, IN pulling around 10 cars of private varnish (including a Vista dome) behind a 7-hour late #49.

The Corridor Clipper went on Train 172 to Boston today, the car will be dropped at Boston for the MBTA to test it on it's lines.

#156 is on the New Haven-Springfield line. Also, who deleted the thread i created?

It appears it was merged into this thread ... see posts above ...

Babbling Brook was on the back of Empire Service train #236 this morning.
