Second of attempt to get train W263-21 west finds them stalled again at the foot of 17-Mile Grade at Bloomington, MD after the #6 failed to load properly. The power from the following W263-20 would tie their train down at Keyser, cutting away their power and shove the W263-19 over the mountain - 22 March 2017

Date: 04/21/17 05:14 Re: CitiRail ES44AC on CSX Mountain Subdivision Author: DirtyShirt What type of train are these W263s you are seeing? How often are they operating?
Date: 04/21/17 05:30 Re: CitiRail ES44AC on CSX Mountain Subdivision Author: DTWilson Typically they are a solid train of Frac. Sand between Cumberland, MD and Grafton, WV... but they also use that symbol for extra freight that Q317 or Q315 cant handle. Runs at least 3 times a week or more.
