Mystery axle |
| Description: |
Westbound CSX Q261 proceeds through St.Denis on Track #1. The equipment defect detector at milepost 9 reported no defects for 133 axles. 133?! Let's see, four axles per rack divided into 132 yields 33 cars. None of the autoracks I saw had an extra axle, so I'm not sure where the mystery axle came from. |
