Southover Yard in Savannah sure is open. I've only been on the RR for a few weeks now and it was as busy as I've seen it when I left a few hours ago. We will have a few switching operations around the clock Easter, as for the road I'm not sure, heard we'll have a light load.

True, we uphere in Boston don't have that much CSXT action on such holidays, especially on the Small Lines (Braintree, Kingston MA/Plymouth & Middleboro/Buzzards Bay)

And FYI, we are not yanks here, we are the RED SOX! :-)

Normally Good Friday is a paid holiday and only a few yard switchers at terminals on the B&A are the only action other than regular main-line traffic....however mostly all jbs worked this year. (Still playing catch-up from the snow). :wink:
