Q741 and the Trespasser

This is train Q741 with TT and empty juice cars headed South by St Denis today.  About 2/3 back there was some idiot riding on the platform which holds the generator for the reefer.  Called CSX in Jacksonville and reported him.  They stopped the train at Benning Yard and the D.C. police arrested him.  This is the kind of thing which keeps railfans in good standing with the railroads.

Bob, I saw the same train in College Park this morning while walking my dogs, but I didn't notice the hitchhiker.  Do you have CSX HQ on your speed dial?

It's the first time can recall seeing the juice train with stack cars in the front.  Is that common?

One of the other railfans had the number and selected me to call.  There number is 1-800-232-0144.  That connects you to there Jacksonville, FL headquarters.  Underestand that it's fairly common for the stacks to be on the front of the empty juice train.
