09:25 386,383 Past the depot in Howell. I went down Lucy rd to see the new Padnos siding but couldn’t see anything and they had the road down to one lane as it looks like they will be paving, they were also working at the crossing but you couldn’t stop or get anywhere close to the tracks. Lots of CSX personal was on site.

11:49 329,399,384 North out of Owosso with what looks like a train headed to Claire (mixed freight including loaded CSX gondolas with ties)

15:06 383,386 North at Durand with a pick up from CSX at Ann Pere

Appears a Petoskey run was started last night judging by the looks of Tufford Yard this morning.
