I thought ch 104.3 is the Cochran road defect detector. I don’t recall there being signals there.

That's right, it will replace 105.

Does the signal around 109 just west of Mulliken stay in service?

It should yes. Everything between 105 and 118 is still standing.

L302-30 by Howell at 18:38 following L305 with single unit 8095 west to Lansing. L302 had 7246 + 732 and what looked like HZRX 858 with 53 cars. The HZRX unit was mentioned on the board not too long ago as coming for someone here in Michigan. I believe this may have been a six axle unit? Yep, going...

301 in Grandville switching Standale

3 bay hoppers are for King, 4 bays for AMWAY. 3 tracks full of hoppers in the GRE yard today.

The 4 bays also could be for Poly, as they get plastic hoppers.

So, why the 2 locos? Since these guys are always short on power???

Because, like TC Man said, they use the two engines at Beacon Recycling. Which is in Traverse City as well.

AARR SB at Warner Rd with 3925 leading. They had to recrew after taking that empty grain train north for GLC.

But is Nickthatrailfan in Milan on this Saturday?! Because then he would see this and get an elusive daylight AARR catch!!

Nope, because we all told him to go to Ohio instead.

Went by the GRE yard at Ann St., line of cars for the next EB, with a tank and hopper for AMWAY and around 15 loads for King.

They’ll have quite the snowbank to plow through when they shove into Amway. At least 3 feet high on Fulton street.

GRE on duty at Fuller currently
