Through Megill Rd at 9:17 PM

Their shift ends in about an hour. They won’t make Lakewood unless the absolutely floor it after Farmingdale. Dare say SA38 will have their work cut out for them tonight.

Their OD was pushed back today: 2PM instead of 12. They have 12 hours to work from their OD time.

@NJT4149 Interesting. It certainly didn’t help that they got held up in South Amboy due to a frozen switch.

Btw nice username. 4149 ran real efficient.

The train has stopped in between Miller Rd and Oak Glen Rd. The lights are on at Oak Glen so he’s stopped on the crossing circuit. Not sure what’s going on...

Possible trees down maybe?
  by Bracdude181
 
@jdh823 I was thinking the same thing. Either that or something was up with the bridge in that area.

Did anyone hear the train go back last night?

I don't know if they went back last night or not but it looks like a train went across Route 9
  by CSX4421
 
Nope. Never heard the train come back.
  by Bracdude181
 
My friend is in the area and will look around to see if they parked somewhere. I’ll give y’all an update when he gets back to me.

Confirmed the train is parked at Woodhaven.
  by Bracdude181
 
Train is still at Woodhaven as of 4:05 PM. No crew in sight. They left the engines running when they left so I assume that means they will go back tonight. They also drilled Woodhaven before they left.
  by Bracdude181
 
Crew showed up around 5 PM. Looks like the train will go back as SA31. They should be leaving Woodhaven soon.

The train stopped at Brick Recycling to pull the centerbeam out, but they ended up leaving the car there. I guess the switch was iced up and couldn’t be moved.

They should be at Hamilton Rd in 30 minutes if they don’t stop for a break out there.
