Q326 was reported by the DD at mp CG44.2 @ 1:22pm with CSX engine #100 + 1 & 94 cars (signal was lost at Bangor - no video for Q326).
At 1:58pm, heard dispatch saying Q326 is sitting dead on Saugatuck hill - couldn't make it over the hill it appears. He didn't get pusher engines added to his 94 car train. Don't know yet what the plan is for Q326.
At 19:04, D801 has coupled to Q326 at New Richmond mp CG36. D801 advised Dispatch they are not confident they can move Q326 over the hill without a running start.
This has Q327 delayed.

Q327 is sitting in Grandville with 3347 leading a healthy train waiting for a signal to go.

You mean he made it like a barrel rolling down a hill
Q32928 by Howell at 07:37. CSX 3090 single unit with 58 cars. Q32828 went east at 06:15 with the power nobody got to see at Bangor yesterday on Q326 because the camera conveniently took a 12 minute hiatus just as 326 was approaching. Behind CSX 100 was 3067. 328 had 97 cars this morning.

Quite the interesting dilemma with 326 yesterday. It was so late that it showed it terminated in Holland for some reason.
