19:00, MQT northbound approaching Baldwin, no visual.
MQT back south from Baldwin at 76th Street, 20:15, still no visual but sounds like it might be heavy.

Interesting - what appeared to be a Grand Elk MOW pickup running north through Byron Center around 9:30pm. Probably scanning for downed trees from the weekend storms, but don't recall seeing any kind of Sunday work from train crews or MOW in a very long time.

I hear them in Plainwell now. And they've been here for 20 minutes or so.
