Finally. 4568 has been spending most of 2026 in Florida somewhere and all of February has been in Tampa-based local and rock shuttle service. Today is the second trip across the Big Manatee, but today with a full train (light engines the day before). There will be no immediate repeat as it was left in Bradenton, swapping with their local engine back to Tampa. Its first trip across the bridge dates back to October 2022, right after it hit the road, but smack dab in the middle of a hurricane warning....so I've been waiting for another chance. This was 100% luck as the locals do not use specific sets every time, also stopped using inbound road power off I045 or M441. Complete roll of the dice daily. Looks like it got a little cleaning recently.
