About 4 PM I saw part of a long freight going east from Suffern at about 50 MPH. I couldn't catch up to the beginning of the train, so I don't know what kind of power it has. The part I saw was covered hoppers and a couple of empty lumber cars.
I'm curious whether this is regular NS traffic, or whether it represents CSX sending detour trains over the Southern Tier. On a topic on the NY State board, it was mentioned that detour trains might happen because of CSX problems in upstate New York. I don't know if these detours happened, and if they did, if they ended up on NYSW or on the Mainline.
