Thanks again, Stuart. After a couple issues convincing it to work I managed to get it cleared. 457K records later the queue was empty. :-)

That's part of what was messing me up. I browse the PSID and see the data in it and the queue name, listing it as an XMIT queue, but if I try to display the queue, I only see it showing as a remote queue. I'll run the EMPTY command against this queue.

The name will probably be the name of the remote server. If not, check the remote queue definition. It will have the name of the XMIT queue. That is what you want to clear.
