Of course it was back in Nevins.......between CP39 & CP43 was single track due to B722 going through the derail at a customer off track #2, derailing 2 cars and fouling the main. :( ooops.

MBTA: the ahoo group CSXT Sightings had a post about the grinder being west of Worcster at one point.

yea i read about that, will it just layover in the worcester yard now for tonight ? are there any other csx yards after W. Springfield yard on the B&A until Palmer?

Palmer is between Worcester and West Springfield. The next yard after West Springfield would be Pittsfield.
