V-874 is now known as V09702, by Howell at 15:38 with 90 cars. Met D708 at Fowlerville. V-097 currently at Webberville setting off its rear unit, 9025 to be used with 4566 on the next Webberville grain load. Now, with two units and both facing west, the next Grand Ledge load will either have to wye their power, or get another 3rd unit to come back east.

17:08 CT / 18:08 ET: Eastbound at Michigan City - based on the time of day and the horn, I’d say it’s an N800.

It's been 4037 and 8400 for the last little while, I have no reason to believe it's changed.

@ 09:45 reported by the DD mp CH104.4 another radio call had stepped on the axle count, length was 5,977 feet. Wondering if the slug set is intended for Holland since theirs was sent away to Chicago. Lately, D700 has been working with a single engine.

D705-04 @ 10:24 westward reported by the DD mp CH126.3 with 392 axles. CSXT engines #530 + #7010 & 95 cars. He may still have the CSXT slug set #6470 + #2239, which would reduce the car count by 2.
