D705, D706, D707, D708 are the locals between Grand Rapids and South Lyon, with D705/D706 reaching Detroit.

D705 and D706 were once Q trains (I don't recall which, feel free to add) that ran from Detroit to Chicago and back, but the higher ups decided they could save some cash only paying crews for a local job. Update: I have been informed that they were only Detroit to Grand Rapids and back, not Detroit to Chicago.

9:19 AM: CSX Y102-19 reported by the NE Pinoca Signal Mp SF334.4. CSX engines 4080 and 4045 and 29 cars.

D705 was Q329 & D706 was Q328 but they ran between Detroit & Grand Rapids. When D705 & D706 were established, they ran on opposite days with Sundays off. Not long after, they both became daily trains.
