Still never saw or heard a thing of D708 on Tuesday again.

I’ve been waiting for the safety train all year ask the Wyoming yard workers to couple it to q327 tonight

08:55 Q329 west clear MA with consist described. MPC Lumber NW of Lansing has a centerbeam load, only about their 5th car for the year. Hart Truss also had a centerbeam empty. Definitely no sign of D708 yesterday...

E801-30 in system for today

As of 11:30am, D700 around Riverside, and Q326 is nearing St Joseph.

12:30pm - sounds like Y106 is heading east out of Grand Rapids.

1:05pm - D700 east at Bangor, CSXT 4036 leading 3 steel coil cars, 3 short tank cars, and 4 short covered hoppers.
1:23pm - Q32631 east at Bangor, CSXT 48 and CSXT 455 with a whopping 167 cars, half of that supposed to have came yesterday as q32630 was annulled.

As of 2:58pm, Q326 and D700 are at Saugatuck, no D800's working, so gotta figure D700 and Q326 helped get the train over the hill.

BNSF 9064, 5693, CSXT 449, 3054 with West Olive empties south at Riley 2. Holland 3:15 PM.

Empty Coal just went by Bangor

The empty coal sped like a bullet because of its Gevo and sd70mac

THOSE WHERE EMPTY WELL CARS NOT TOFC CARS. CSX HAS EMPTY WELLS STUFFED ALL OVER THE SYSTEM. THEY JUST PUT A STRING OF THEM IN HUDSONVILLE OVER THE LAST WEEK.

No D-job crews today so they might not have a crew for 327. Vacations and these extra coal trains are taking their toll on the pools at GRP.

P370-31 is currently going through Benton Harbor. Sounds like IDTX 4619 leading.
