admin edit: some additional info to compliment Pyrodronprod's postings:

D708-19 left Howell westbound for main two at Lansing with 67 cars for tomorrows D705 or D706 pick up They may have fixed the EOT before leaving but they missed some hand brakes on the east end by the smell when the rear of their train went by. Forgot to mention too that this mornings D705-19, by Howell at 02:45 was dark at the rear of their train. They may have had communication between both ends but the EOT was not blinking. Been a long while since I have seen that.
