Sounds like E800 is being held at Kirk, as there has apparently been an accident at a grade crossing. I'm guessing the snow and the Coloma Rd. S-curve have claimed another vehicle.

E800-11 at CG 71 okay on EC1 for Activation Failure at Coloma Rd (CG 76.7) at 12:03 am.
E800-11 is departing Kirk for New Buffalo, where they will tie down their train. Sounds like BNSF 9151 leading.

Amtrak is not at the station and isn’t showing up on TransitDocs. Is that accident affecting them?

Q328 & Q329 met in South Lyon again on this Sunday morning and was also by Howell at the exact same time as Saturday's post. Q32812 had CSX 166 with only 22 cars, Q32912 had CN 5670 and CSX 7694 with 53 cars. No set off at Lansing and doubt if there is any pick up either. If anything, 329 will set off their second unit to use as the lead unit on the soon to be Grand Ledge grain load. It would be a good pair if so as the train would have 7694 & 7794 for power. If they don't, the train will still need one from somewhere.

They where wying the train after the passengers got off so they did not have to do it this AM. No cabbage again.
