    @SCH: Interesting, and thanks for the info. I guess that means it’s not a revenue train.

    It’s very much a revenue train.

    There’s about a set going back and forth every day.

    Ahhhhh, I see. I had assumed it was an occasional train bringing diesel for locomotive refuelling facilities at Mac yard. Thanks for including the link.
