**Sounds like D801 which I’m kinda scratching my head at since that’s normally coal train helpers.

R-G-R-| would be a medium clear, CSX is speed signals.

Correct on the 78 cars for Q329 over the DD's west of Lansing Tom. Forgot to mention they only had a two car pick up there this morning, just in case someone thought I miscounted, which I sometimes do and then don't correct it after hearing the DD west of Fowlerville.

With 3417+336 on Q327 this morning, former pusher power, 555+3277 from yesterdays Q329, should be the new pusher units. If not, good power for the Grand Ledge grain load, which I assume is still there. Q32911 went west by Howell at 09:02 with CSX 5259+5366 and 120 cars. At least 21 or more to pick up at Lansing if they get them. Q32811 went east at 06:32 with CSX 13+352 and 92 cars.
