Q32913 went west by Howell at 08:30 with CSX 4560+3115 and 67 cars. 2nd day in a row of having 328 power from the previous day returning back to GRP. D708 yesterday took back 27 cars to Lansing, plus CN units 8935 & 8959 from Peaker. If 329 picks the two CN units you'll never know it by the axel count west of Lansing unless they are sighted. If they have them, that will be three less cars in the count, than if they do. Q32812 went east at 07:15 with CSX 336-3417 and 121 cars.

Is this going to be the new norm? I've noticed D801 taking cars to Holland and back in the last few days.
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Not sure yet about Holland, this is the 2nd day in a row Q327 didn't drop off any cars into Holland. At one time months ago, Q327 only stopped in Holland when D700 was on their 2 days off duty time, then, I had heard D700's work load had increased & Q327 would be dropping off cars in Holland. Seemed to be at least 95% of the time Q327 was making the Holland stop.

Q327-13 @ 10:10:30am at Bangor's Center Street mp CG60.35 with CSX engines #13 + #352 & 111 cars.
Q327-13 @ 11:15am cleared the St Joseph Bridge.

Q329 @ 11:42am reported by the DD at mp CH126.3 with 400 axles. Could be 2 engines & 97 cars, or, 4 engines & 94 cars if he picked up those 2 CN engines.

Heard Q329's crew talking to the East Tower saying "I have the 2 Peaker motors". Guess he means he does have the 2 CN engines.

One of the Detroit Sub locals is working all three customers by Levan Rd. in Livonia. BASF, lumber yard and Valassis all getting serviced. BASF doesn’t get many cars anymore. Lumber yard is steady. Valassis also steady but business is down from 10 years ago.

P370-13 is currently going through Benton Harbor. Sounds like IDTX 4607 leading.

Happy 10th Anniversary on railroadfan.com to me! :)

It appears Y121 serviced all three of Zeeland's CSX customers today:

2 covered hoppers now at the Plastcore siding, there had been 1 yesterday, not sure if they swapped 1 for 2 or just brought one additional.

1 DSRC ex CNW covered hopper at Van den Bosch Feed, their 4th car of the year so far.

2 new lumber centerbeams replaced one MT at Zeeland Lumber.
