D801-27 @ 5:05pm westward reported from mp CG9.0 with CSXT engines #989 + #5120 lite. He's headed to the west end of Wells Siding mp CG43.3 to DP the N800-26 that had tied down there earlier today. CSXT #5120 (from today's Q326) had replaced the CSXT #579 due to issues it had. I thought I had heard it's a problem with the cab heater. The CSXT #579 was leading the #989 when they had gone into Grand Rapids for the engine change out.

D801-27 @ 5:22pm westward reported by the DD mp CG19.1 with 12 axles & 130 feet long.

D801-27 @ 6:06pm, main to siding, west end of Wells.

D705-27 had 125 in Williamston before it’s switching in Ensel. Saw two coil cars and at least two boxcars for JAIL. 4-5 tie gons, 7-8 covered ash gons and at the head end a whole cut of rip rock cars for MikeH and Jonathon.
