Eastern Railroad Discussion > NB intermodal on the S-Line in Central Florida?Date: 11/10/12 17:22 NB intermodal on the S-Line in Central Florida? Author: billroland On my way into town a few minutes ago I was stopped by a hot shot NB double stack on the CSX S-Line in Ocala. Its rare to see NB intermodal on this line, the first ones I recall seeing were several weeks back when the A-Line was closed for bridgework for the SunRail project for 3 or 4 days.
So the question is, if anyone knows, was this just another reroute, or is CSX starting to shift these trains over to the S-Line permanently? Thanks in advance.

There were two SB intermodals as well: R177 and R187. They were all temporary reroutes, hence the R symbol. No permanent changes yet, however Q188 will occasionally run the S-Line...probably to balance crews.
