Last night around 22:00 a train with 48 total axles was by Littleton detector. Later radio traffic indicated this was an empty rail train.

At about 07:30 today a train passed the detector with 462 axles. Since there was no further radio traffic heard I assume this was a M426.

M426-13 didn't roll off the B&A until 02:58 this morning, so likely them.

M426-14 was off the B&A at 14:04 with 464/513/482 and 103 cars.

A correction to my post this morning, after seeing the Loram Rail Grinder come on to the B&A around 18:00 that must have been the 48 axle train from last night. The dispatcher was calling it a "rail train."

I'm wondering if they will add a second train soon to handle the growth.
