Trains in Waterloo and Butler area.
I am not sure what the problem was but there were trains stopped on both tracks.
On my way to Butler from Waterloo I saw the first eastbound train stopped right before the grain elevator. Train on #1 track. (I did get photo of this train, will post later.)
The next one was on #2 track stopped west of Butler at CR59. It was also an eastbound. Appeared to have issues with the locomotive. There was no maintainer truck. A second locomotive was stopped east of this location, on the same track, just before the 61 overpass. (Locomotive no cars.)
In Butler a short train with locomotive on the west end of the train was blocking Federal St. Train also on #2 track.
Back in Waterloo at Commerce Dr. sat another eastbound on #1 track.
Did not get phots due the lack of places to park.
I could not wait around to find out what was going on.
Anyone have info?
