Q329 west at Breton in GR 15:23. Q326 today supposedly had a pair of increasingly rare Dash 9s.

Don't know if anyone saw it but last night V944 ran up the GR Sub from Chicago. This is an empty grain train that got sent the wrong way at Deshler after being mistakenly re-classed as a train for the BNSF. Train made it to East Curtis where it tied down. GR crew ran around it and brought it to GR. Not sure when it will head for Webberville.

I thought that was weird...but I can't say I am SHOCKED either. We snagged a Detroit Edison train in Chicago once. THEY INSISTED so we took it. DEEX cars? Umm all righty then and AWAY WE GO! (in my best Jackie Gleason imitation.)

A few years ago someone goofed and sent an Essexville train to West Olive and a West Olive train to Essexville. I don't know why it mattered (both western coal in CPOX cars), but they insisted on the correct train going to the correct location. So one train went east from GR and one went west from Plymouth, I think they met at Trowbridge.

NB mixed freight is at Middle River, with CSX 6504 leading. Looks like they're gonna do some switching first before proceeding north onto LSRC. Four covered large rectangular loads on flats near the front.
