Y106 must be back to days, just went east at Breton in GR 10:20 am.
That’s good news!! I heard it from my other plant at 44th and Patterson then again around 14:30 I think it was after my Mgmt Meeting. Now I can start getting shots of it again from 36th with my new camera!!
P370-05 is currently going through Riverside. Sounds like IDTX 4629 leading.

Amtrak P371-06 @ 07:30:10am Bangor's Center Street crossing mp CG60.35 with IDTX #4629 & 4 cars (0 passengers boarded).
Amtrak P371-06 @ 08:08am cleared the St Joseph Bridge.
Q327-06 @ 08:09am is still in Grand Rapids waiting for a carman to perform air tests after suffering from a broken knuckle - rough start for Q327 this morning. CSX #3349 is leading & most likely also has the CSX #3474 (both from yesterday's Q326).
Q327 head end is under 28th st. in Grandville and is still having issues. Talked to the clerk who taxied the conductor to the head end and told me over 200 cars today. 3349, 3043 elephant style towing a dead 4007.
Heard 327 blowing for Ivanrest a couple times as they stacked up this morning. Clearly a big train. There was no doubt something was amiss when that knuckle went. You would’ve thought Le Grand Castle dropped their roof.
