Eastern Railroad Discussion > Missed CSX 3099 But Caught 4 CSX Trains - SD50-2 - Mentor Today

I drove up to Mentor Ohio this afternoon in hopes of trying to catch Q010-25 with 3099 Spirit of West Springfield, but alas. Why? Because when I arrived I saw Q384 and Q008 go through. Then I decided to go to McDonalds to get a bite to eat and as I was dirving back Jackson Street I saw between buildings Q010 with 3099 flying through. So I missed him. Anyway it wasn't a total loss cause as I stayed a little longer and caught these trains below.

Train 1: CSX Westbound Empty Alcohol K637 lead by CSX YN3b Tier 4 ET44AH #3348 and YN2 Dash 8 C40-8W #7836 at 5:07PM at old Heisely Road crossing.
Train 2: CSX Westbound Intermodal Q001 lead by CSX YN3 GEVO ES40DC #5487 & YN3 SD70MAC #4806 at Deekers at 5:18PM.
Train 3: Very Short CSX Westbound Freight lead by CSX YN3b GEVO Tier 4 ET44AH #3311, YN2 AC4400CW #32, NS Dash 8 C40-8W #8370 & CSX GP38-2 #2544 at 5:37PM.
Train 4: CSX Eastbound Freight Q386 lead by CSX YN3 AC4400CW #573 & YN3b SD50-2 #2482 at 6:07PM back at Heisely.

So it wasn't a bad day for trains, but I'm still dissapointed I missed 3099 by minutes.
