If the 2015 is the same 2015 that was on Q329 at Howell this morning, this is a CSX unit. However, D708 picked up CN 4929 at Peaker yesterday and should have come into GRP this morning on 329. Was expecting GLLX/ GTW 4428 to be on D708 today for GLC but it wasn't. Its possible 2015 could be set off in Holland tonight as well.[/quote]

Q32930 by Howell at 08:15 with CSX 5231+776 with 80 cars. Q32930 went east at 7:00, same time as yesterday with CSX 5204+5467 and 101 cars Stone empties were on the head end for a change.

GLLX 4428, the GTW unit was on D708 this afternoon. When they came back west, what looked like CN 8858 was in the consist, but if so it came back quick as it had just gone to Peaker on the 24th, only a week ago. Am not quite sure if the GLLX 4428 was dropped off a Peaker when they picked up the CN unit, or, they sat the GLLX unit off at Ann Pere on their way back west.

4428 is heading to Owosso, it’s being leased by SRI.

Q327 with CSX engine #832 & 84 cars is diverging into Kirk siding mp CG70.2 @ 21:27 to clear up for Amtrak. Saw there were articulated cars that threw off my DD44.2 calculations for 83 cars.

E801-31 empty coal at Bangor mp CG60.7 @ 22:33:06 with BNSF engines #8447 + 1 & 128 cars. (Dispatcher says E801 & train says E800??)
D801-31 had back tracked from Wells to Holland, no idea what's going on with him. He passed over the DD at mp CG44.2 westward @ 21:03 with 128 cars with BNSF engines #8447 + 1 and went back to Holland with the engines that were originally on E801-31 the BNSF #9143 + #9721. Dispatch wanted D801 to couple up to another empty in West Olive but the crew advised that wasn't possible due to their limited service time.

Q327 at Bangor mp CG60.7 @ 21:01:31 with 83 cars, he had dropped off 5 cars in Holland tonight.
The 5th car back was a BNSF covered hopper, which may have been the one that was spotted on the spur at Vanden Bosch Feed in Zeeland yesterday. I also noted two covered hoppers on the spur for Plastcore in Zeeland, but they haven't moved in a week.
