X500 was actually mostly intermodal and freight today, a nice change from solid autoracks.

Hmmm...they probably won't make it up the hill in daylight then.

X741 just cleared Plymouth diamond about 2 minutes ago. I wish I knew about it sooner!

Headed out for a bike ride to take a stroll to go see Q335..as I was headed down Kalamazoo ave, heard W05519 clearing west end Fox... booked it as fast as I could down to seymour instead, got there with about a minute to spare... nice train with Herzog side dump cars. Caught Q335 about 20 mins later, but by then, clouds came in.

Was down in Romulus and caught E446 and 104 cars at the diamond. Can you guess who was there? Valiant Officer Bone so me and my friend kind of followed him around romulus for a while after he bugged us and we ended up in a parking lot and we pulled up next to him and waved and smiled at him. Just messed with him in general then we followed him around some more and when he did a U-turn under 94 we did to but by that time E446 was coming and he went to a crossing watched it come through and did not come back. I'd just hate to think we scared him off...
