Hello, The first 3 months of 2015 has flyed by quick, The RF&P has seen many new symbols, Some Reroutes some not,
the K080 derailment that happened earlier this year had some effects on Richmond-DC Area rail traffic, K122, K124, K121 All Empty Oil reroute that went North On the RF&P. Now the derailment is cleaned up, No more Oil Cans on the RF&P, But a New symbol is here to stay, A Waycross, Ga to Chicago, Chicago to Waycross train Q647/Q648, The few times I have been out this year, Q647 had Foreign Power, BNSF, CP, HLCX SD40-2 Ex BN Green. I talked to Trainmaster while in Ashland,Va. trainmaster Blackmore it said on his tag, When I asked him about 647/648 on the RF&P, He said flat out, there staying, Didn't tell me why, just said there staying.



Any new symbols to the Northend, Cap, Met or OML please post Here.
