D801-30 @ 06:17 eastward Holland Depot mp CG25.3 with BNSF engine #5987 + KCS engine #4878 & 128 loaded coal cars & rear dpu’s CSXT #16 + #7010.

Amtrak P371-30 @ 06:38 westward reported by the DD mp CG19.1 with 16 axles & 307 ft. IDTX engine #4630 & 3 SuperLiners.
What’s the likelihood of that KCS unit being sent back on an empty coal train later today?
Hi, I don't think that will happen today. And it appears there is still a pair of BNSF engines (#6302 + #6242) sitting there.

Note:
D802-28 had taken N800-25 from Grand Jct siding to West Olive with BNSF engines #6302 + #6242 yesterday June 29th.

D801-30 early this morning took N800-28 from Grand Jct siding to West Olive with the BNSF #5987 + KCS #4878.

I would guess the next move for an empty coal train out of West Olive would have the BNSF #6302 + #6242.

D706 by Howell at 08:15 with 101 cars. Same power as D706 AND D705 yesterday. If they can get it to Detroit fast enough, D705 can have it again later today.
Got to love it BL2, you called it, by Plymouth @ 14:35

08:30, FRA crew is aboard W009 which is parked on the M of W tail track at Ensel near MLK Blvd. in Lansing. Im not sure if a locomotive crew was onboard yet. CSXT 4016 for power. Lots of CSX trucks and staff around, too.
I went by the yard again at 17:10 and it looks like the train may not have actually moved all day, or perhaps it did a little work in Lansing and returned to where it started. Sorry for the apparent false alarm. At that time D708 was tied down and power disconnected and sitting near MLK at Ensel. Also, a TBOX boxcar was unloaded today at the MPC Cashway lumberyard west of the airport.
Does anyone know whatever happened with W009?

Got permission past EE Howell a couple minutes ago. Dispatcher is having issues with the signal. Still no sign of him at Burkhart rd.

D702-30 @ 16:29 westward, Pass Track to Main Track, Holland Depot near mp CG25.3 with CSXT engines #2502 + #2349 & 6 empty Gon cars. He then backed his train eastward @ 16:31, Main to Main, and will be going into the Dock Track. He was on the Dock Track at 16:35 with permission to leave the switch to the Main open & has about 1 1/2 hours work to do.

As of last night, it was still at Ensel. Last week they moved it into the middle of the yard by the new office.

The ex Metroliner was uncoupled from the other two cars and the engine was separate from that.

D708 just dropped off a cut of cars for GLC who was here shortly after D705. D708 is now picking up the cars GLC left and will head back west shortly.

Did D708 have 4016 solo or did they still have 8400 as well?
