Passenger Trains > CDTX 924 by OKJ - 3:29pmDate: 05/16/03 15:31 CDTX 924 by OKJ - 3:29pm Author: tracktime Hey folks, Just received an eyewitness report from our intrepid trackside correspondent (Espeeboy) that CDTX 924 has just left the environs of Oakland\'s Jack London Square (OKJ) on the tail end of the MRVSJ (Roseville, CA->San Jose Manifest). The head end locomotive on the train is the UP 9463 (DASH8-41CW). CDTX 924 is about 7 cars from the rear end, facing back. This is the second MP36-PH3S to be delivered to Caltrain. Ah.. update.. It just went by Fruitvale/High Street. 331pm. Best Regards, Harry Date: 05/16/03 16:45 Pics of CDTX 924! Author: espeeboy Gotta go catch my plane for the PCL trip tomorrow but here are some pics - 2 labeled wrong. Will fix later! I got 40 minutes to catch my plane!

Anyone know when it left Boise? Date: 05/16/03 21:31 Re: CDTX 924 by OKJ - 3:29pm Author: fjc calhog wrote:

Preparation H watch out... L Date: 05/17/03 19:35 It's Pointed the Wrong Way! Author: shed47 ....but I assume it\'s just UP\'s job to get it there. Looks like a trip to the Mission Bay wye to right things.
Seen passing College Park today being hauled from Newhall to the depot by the 903 on the pinup. Still coupled to the 903 on depot 12 as of early evening.  Date: 05/17/03 20:22 Re: It's Pointed the Wrong Way! Author: fjc shed47 wrote:
