Thanks, TT Date: 02/13/17 16:52 Re: RBBB Blue Unit Circus Train - Raleigh NC to Philadelphia PA Author: ctillnc I read it's P926-13 but I didn't hear it on the radio, so I can't swear to it.
I'm guessing Richmond at 0330 Tuesday but that depends on CSX dispatching. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/13/17 17:17 by ctillnc. Date: 02/13/17 17:44 Re: RBBB Blue Unit Circus Train - Raleigh NC to Philadelphia PA Author: TamaquaTim Thanks for the symbol info, due you mean 3:30 am.
