Q32810 fowlerville MI. Q32910 williamston MI.

Q328 & Q329 met in Fowlerville at 07:45. Things began to go sour for Q32810 when the DD at MP 64.0 was silent and the crew had to walk their entire train before heading east. Then, when they got to Howell at 09:30 they had red blocks at Ann Pere because the signal system shows a GLC lined up for the diamond, yet there is no GLC around with now only two hours and 15 minutes to make Detroit. Q32810 has CSX 3375+3009+8832 on the head end with 118 cars. 3375+3009 was on the X32627 train into GRP nearly two weeks ago where ever this pair has been hiding. Q32910 had CSX 5223+5368 on the head end with 64 cars.

From the tad late department, Yesterday, was out all day long doing spring yard work. Q32909 went west at 08:33 with the power SD80MAC reported at Breton early yesterday afternoon and had 74 cars by Howell. Q32809 went east at 06:29 with CSX 812-482 and 73 cars.
