X010, a coal train bound for Consumers in Essexville, is currently going through Saginaw with two GR&P ES44AC's. In other news, the GR&P has picked up a new customer. The lumber yard on Haggerty Road in West Bloomfield has a new owner, and has decided that the GR&P will be switching the place. It'll average about two cars every other day starting Saturday.

S100 and S141 are meeting just south of Durand. S100 has two GP9's, a SD40-2, a ES44AC, and two GP35's with 82 cars. S141 has two GP35's and 58 cars.

Oh, I didn't know you did. If that's the case, the coal trains are all yours then.

The tracks have been laid to Ottawa Lake, now the crossings just some more details for that part of the line need to be worked on. Soon, tracks will begin being laid west out of Adrian, and the ABDF tracks will be upgraded.

S100 is in stuck in Durand with a SD70AC and a ES44AC with 42 cars. The Flint Sub is unusually congested.

[atrainguy60]

X010 is just entering Durand from Essexville with the same two ES44AC's from when it went north. 132 cars. S141 is right behind it, and S140 is just south of Durand waiting for the two to get out of the way. S141 has a GP9 and two SD40-2's with 61 cars. S140 has two HLCX's, a FURX, and two GP35's, with 86 cars.

Tracks have been connected in Ottawa Lake. Grade crossings and signals will be worked on or installed. The ABDF tracks are also being worked on, and track building has begun out of Adrian going west. It is expected that the track laying to Hillsdale will be finished at the beginning of next week.

The GR&P has acquired trackage rights to Port Huron on the CN Flint Sub. See my updated list of trains to see the new ones.

[atrainguy60]

The tracks that have been laid are just to the east of Hudson. S143 in Durand waiting for S144 to pass, and S148 is waiting on the southside of Durand on the Holly Sub for the other trains to get out of the way. Meanwhile S145 is in Flint waiting for S143 and S148 to go by before departing for Durand. S143 has a SD40-2 and two GP35's and 49 cars. S144 has a single SD70AC with 54 cars. S148 has two SD40-2's and 61 cars. S145 has a single GP9 and 24 cars. In about an hour, S104 will be leaving Toledo with a CP SD90MAC and a SOO SD60(still in white and red paint) and 73 cars.

The crossings on the new track between Ottawa Lake and Riga should be done by Saturday morning. Even though they aren't finished yet, and trains won't be running until then, I have added a new train, a local, to the list.

[atrainguy60]

The tracks are being laid into Hillsdale today. Expect that section of track to be finished by tomorrow.

Sure, go ahead.

A single GP9 delivering 70 covered hoppers full of grain to Saginaw from Richville currently. Marquette Rail will take it south on their line.

Headed south over the diamonds in Plymouth presently

It had a hard time pulling, but trust me, it made it to Saginaw. Almost considered adding a GP35 on the train, but figured I would leave that for S111. This is actually why S140 had 7 engines, because we are a little short on power in the thumb area.
