Engine Stranded over weekend?
« on: June 02, 2010, 03:57:20 PM »
Went past Finkl on Cortland both Saturday and Sunday and the engine was sitting with an empty centerbeam car from Big Bay on the track behind Finkl. Any idea if the bridge is having problems functioning? Don\'t think they have the money to fix the bridge if major problems occur.

Or perhaps the crew went over their allowed hours.  Another thought is that they ran out of fuel.

My dad drove past there on Thursday and said he saw it by the North Ave. yard.  Problem must be fixed.

Keep on chuggin\' Chicago Terminal!
