Something got lined east across Trowbridge at 13:56, was occupying the diamond for about 30 seconds and cleared up just now.
I'd guess D708 with a short train.

D708 power light (4037) went to Webberville to pull cars out of the plant, backed them to Williamston down the main, ran around the cars thru the siding and now preparing to go back to Lansing. Perhaps another Webberville grain train coming and they needed to be pulled. D706 now still blocking the main line west of Howell for the last 16 hours.

They will add the DPU's & a D job will take over, eventually.
