As per a friend, CSX 4452 and NS 5313 arrived at browns on OI-16 today. Does anyone know if these engines will stay there or leave on the next OI-16? I'd like to see 4421 go down the southern.

Currently waiting for SA38 to show up at Woodhaven. SA31 reached Lakewood around 8:15 PM tonight and running pretty fast today.

As of 9:38 PM, SA38 has finished drilling Woodhaven but appears to have tied down the train on the Woodhaven spur...

SA38 has left Woodhaven and is eastbound at James Street as of 10:02 PM

The SA-31 crew was supposed to drill Woodhaven as far as I know, so they were waiting for the 38 crew . . .

4452 is already in Browns lol

@CoastLineRailfan I meant to type 4421 lol. Turns out it was actually two SD45s that brought OI-16 to browns that day.

When they finished drilling Woodhaven, they turned out all the lights on the locomotive so I thought they had tied it down there. It turns out the 31 crew and the 38 crew were having a quick meeting in the parking lot next to the Woodhaven spur. They were there for about 15-20 minutes before leaving. The SA38 crew got into the locomotive once they finished, and they left shortly afterwards.

On Nov 21 last, ANRP2 posted that a contractor would be checking for "Plate F" clearance along the southern. Since then there has been no more and I have been rattling my pea sized brain to see what might fit or cause that requirement.
Interestingly enough, Oyster Creek nuclear plant is being de-commissioned. The CMSL freight tracks which join the southern sec at Lakehurst are only a short ride over Barnegat Drive or Lacey Rd thru mostly sparsely populated areas. They're gonna need to move that stuff somehow, and there's a lot of very large pieces, and GSP or rte 9 for any distance would not be a good answer. Thoughts?
