WB D705 just cleared Plymouth. CSX 3329 + 595 + 193 cars. DPU CSX 751 after 96th car.

Perfect count SW. Saw the train before I saw your post and that was exactly what I got. More stone loads on the head end and the first 60 cars had lots of Ann Pere cars in in. More stone loads before and after the DPU as well. Train will outlaw at Lansing and there is not recrew available until well after midnight. Grain load from Webberville is meeting them at Trowbridge. Crew is expected to set out their Lansing cars on Main 2 and outlaw on main one which will allow D707 to work.
