GO-58, I heard you guys going in an emergency.
00:02
You guys need any help?
00:03
If not we really went to Mercer, we struck a car at the Old Decker Road down at just south end of Alice.
00:08
Ah, okay. All right, yeah.
00:10
Yeah, the conductor's making his way back here now.
00:12
I don't know, it's on the east side of the rail, but I'm assuming the emergency person doesn't get over that side somehow.
00:17
I got you. Appreciate the offer, though.
00:19
No problem. You got back there yet? I'm back here.
00:23
It was, the car was struck right in front of, or right behind the, was right on the north side of the south facing signal.
00:31
Yeah, how many occupants so I can let him know?
00:33
Just one occupant in the vehicle, she's fine, we'll shake it up, but according to the occupist.
00:38
I don't let him know, but that is Elkhorn, is that the road, is she's at? Yes, Elkhorn Road is correct.
00:43
All right.
00:44
You're coming up,
00:47
Greg. C. C. S.X. T 82.
00:49
OCSX-G-EA-SI, Chias fast, over.
00:51

50807. Go ahead over.
00:54
Dr. Mayor Becker says one occupant.
00:55
She's shooking up, but she seems okay.
00:57
Clarification on the road is South Elkhorn Road.
01:00
I think there's officers already on scene.
01:02
She did strike us about five cars deep.
01:05
I got a car number to let you know that if you want it.
01:07
We'll have to check it out a little bit better when he gets back up to the north end, over.
01:10
South Elkhorn Road, over? Yeah, Elkhorn Road is what he said,
01:15
there's an officer there already, but Elkhorn Road, E-L-K-H-O-R-N, over.
01:20
You got an iPod on that one there, I'm over.
01:23
So it's just the very first crossing south of 238, so I'm going to guess it's 238.
01:28
So I'm going to guess it's 238 by 3 or 4.
01:29
Over.
01:30
Okay.
01:31
And what kind of, did it have crossing? What kind of crossing station did it have, Hill?
01:35
Patrick, you still on here? Did it have gates and lights or just lights? This lights is crossing 34242428 .
01:43
It's just lights.
01:45
That's right, just lights.
01:46
3424B is the ID on it.
01:48
342428 Delta.
01:50
3424-24-38 Delta.
01:53
2-8 Delta. Sorry, dispatcher.
01:57
3424-28 Delta is the ID on it.
02:00
Okay. All right, uh...
02:04
Yeah, I'll see it now.
02:05
Yeah, they got Rutgers, B-R-O-O-K,
02:07
H-A-G-E. All right, I'll get it updated.
02:10
Um, it's a little shuckin' out, but it appeared to be okay, over? That's what he said, and I believe he said his officer's already on scene, so hopefully they'll be figuring something out here in a minute.
02:20
I'll let you know when they say we're ready.
02:22
to go out of their way. Okay. All right, sounds good.
02:24
I appreciate it all. Thank you much.
02:25

Hello, CSXE82. Go ahead, over.
02:30
The MTO's here as well.
02:31
He wanted to know if the air was coming up on the rear.
02:33
Yeah, I never lost the air, but I'll charge it up so you can verify it.
02:38
All right, well, we don't, I just want to make sure there wasn't an emergency or anything.
02:42
I tell you what, whenever I, I'm going to have these guys move out of the way and we'll pull up to the office there so we can clear this crossing and I'll get the information from you guys.
02:52
The air's coming up.
02:53
Like I said, she hit me about five deep, I think Patrick Pryor already told you that, but you guys just let me know when it's my turn to make a move.
