Per friend on scene, clear CH84.43 East Lansing at 15:50 with 29 cars

L303 approaching Williamston @ 4:04 PM

L302-28 by Howell at 17:11 with 75 cars. 3457+ 299 + 8619 on the head end. L303 was in the siding at Brighton for L302. Evidently the L305 that is out running today is more than likely a U305 because they have not run in days again. Train would have had to go to South Lyon to turn around. They had 56 cars going east and equal that many to pick up off the Howell pass when they get back.

19:05... Crew back on train on main track. Friend unsure if they're simply airing up or possibly waiting for U305 to return. He has to depart so can't keep up further. (He's not registered on forum)
