Q327-24 @ 1:17pm on the move westward from w/e New Buffalo mp CG116.5 after being held there due to a train / tractor trailer incident on NS territory between CP 497 & CP 451.

They probably meant CP 501. Sounds like the crossing at Pine. Lots of truck traffic there and multiple railroads. The road is also a POS so I’m surprised between all that, that there aren’t more accidents there.

Thank you for the info. I went back thru the radio archives and, yes, Dispatch did say 501

Q326-24 @ 3:25pm eastward was reported by the DD at mp CG19.1 with 384 axles & 5,212 feet long. Thought maybe he would stop to drop off the pair of 4 axle engines he had (CSX #2284 + #6925) in Holland, but, he didn't. Yesterday, Q326 had also brought a pair of 4 axle engines (CSX #6033 + #6142) to Grand Rapids.
