Eastern Railroad Discussion > Bailey Mine...

The NS 1074 Lackawanna is on a N23. I was wanting to know if Bailey Mine is a loop loadout or other? Reason I ask is that the Lackawanna was trailing going in which means if Bailey is a loop then she will me trailing coming out. Thanks all...

LOOP

Figures...doubt that they would put the 1074 up front. I should have gone back to CP WING that Saturday....*sigh*

Just to review for future consideration/planning:
Bailey, Blacksville #2 = Loop
Federal, Emerald, Loveridge = No Loop

Power can be turned at West Brownsville or Port Perry if there are cab signal issues or other problems with a particular unit leading.

... which occasionally happens when a heritage unit is in the consist. So there's room for a little optimism. :)

Thanks guys...I am optimistic still.

Carl, N22 with 1026 on point and 1074 trailing went by me @ 13:21 hours @ MP 74 on the Mon line headed to the Bailey mine. I heard the dispatcher and the engineer on 1026 say N22. As per PittsburghMike it will still trail coming back. Anyway N22 or 23 it still goes to Bailey.

Lovely shot John. That's one little spot on the MGA that I always forget about.
