The MGJNY is currently stopped between switches on the main at Eisele (Clay). The train received a bad roll-by at Plain. A track inspector noticed that the door underneath a ballast hopper was open and nearly dragging on the tracks. The conductor will walk back to inspect the car here. He would find that the car was half empty as the ballast fell out on the tracks en route! He was able to get the door closed so the train could continue east.
