Q090-24, the eastbound "Salad Shooter" produce train, passed Deshler this morning with three Union Pacific six-axles for power. Of note, it had a lone Norfolk Southern boxcar in the consist that is usually entirely white ARMN reefers.
As of July 18 CSX has begun operating a fleet of new trains between Chicago and its new intermodal facility at North Baltimore, Ohio. These trains are designed to interchange directly with western roads and (hopefully) streamline the process. Today I caught the new Q167-25 westbound at Deshler about noon made up of mostly international containers.
