0240-0442/08-25-2021 made it seem -- given the increase in Dispatcher-side garble -- that Henri may have temporarily compromised the clarity of the PAR/S radio system even more. Things started off at 0241 with unattributable car countdowns. Next and at 0251 came some Dispatcher-side garble that resolved into a broken -- no clear Form D number or time effective -- Line 12 for Willow Road for the 7528, more about which later. At 0303, the garbles would shift over to Yard Channel.
OT -- Rte. 2 was open between Rtes. 13 and 12, and a message board advised of nighttime detours effective 08-29. Dunno if the earlier shutdowns had happened or had been PPD cuzza Henri.
0309 was when there were FI-2 car countdowns, the C telling the E at 0310 that there was already a marker and giving the E the number.
At 0314, the 333 WLs were at Stop, a dark elephant lineup of NSs 6945and 9817 and KCIR 7875 having done just that on the 1, covered hoppers immediately west. Over at 334, all signals were at Stop, racks from just east of the 334 1 stagger towards the westerly end of the platform. Guessing ED-8 cuzza the racks, but naught in confirmation would be heard to, from, or about. The 335 ELs and WLs were at Stop, and if there were low cars just west of the racks at 334, no marker was visible from the 335 lot.
There were some garbles on the way WB up Da Hill, some possibly from D-2.
The 345s were dark and the 4 had MT racks from the easterly end of Chair City Oil to the ambulance company, covered hoppers being visible up to just about the westerly FP.
The EB leg of the trip started off at 0346 with Dispatcher-side hash, some being IDable as public-safety encroachments. There'd also be some later AMTK contributions.to hash.
At 0353, the 333 WLs were still at Stop, the 6945 and followers still in place and no additions. At 0357 there would be D-3 breakage involving "lined and locked normal." Coulda been AY-3, but more likely AY-5, as later listenings would indicate . Further east, the 330.8 WBs were at Clear, the 330 WLs and ELs dark, the GL WLs at Stop, and the FG WLs dark.
At 0407, KCIR 5976 -- yep, 6 and not 2 -- was dark, solo, and west-facing in the FI-1/2 parking spot and a goodly number of Maersk DSes sat on East Side. Dunno WB or EB , but Ayer must be crowded.
At 0413, the EB staggers for Derby went from Approaches to dark -- 22K? -- and a company hoppers still sat on the RVJ stub. There would also be some POAY hash, more hash to follow, and more POAY attributions to follow that. 0422 would be when somebody got told something about -- as promised -- AY-5.
There would be some more Yard Channel hashes, but at 0439 and as I was parking, D-3 reached to the LGT with the 7528 with a 241 for 1 at CPF-WL east to Freight Main #1. The Line 12 for Willow Road had gotten to the 7528 ~50 minutes earlier, and the extra coupla minutes of waiting produced naught.
On the matter of naught, hope Henri was naught more than an inconvenience.
