Q392 about to turn east at Plymouth. CSX 5260 + 7502. Nice. Stopping just after Farmer. Looks like it's gonna block at least 2 crossings for awhile. They've had a green signal to turn east; heard them say they "are drawing down", whatever that means.
12:55 UPDATE: Final car cleared Farmer. 88 cars total.

The signals are messed up so k932 will have to stop and check "the signal" which im assuming will be the one before the ann pere because this one at milepost 54.36 is still an approach...i can hear k932 in the distance coming towards howell

Edit: i'm a little confused now because i just heard on my scanner that they stopped because of a defect detector but earlier they did mention signal issues so im not sure it those are two different things or if i misheard the part about signal issues

Edit #2 : i think i deffinetly misheard, the signal at milepost 54.36 is now green
