Yes they did, but I don't know to what extent it was. I tried finding their EC1 release to proceed east but too much other radio traffic. I'll take another listen.

Ok, found it, D706 @ 07:42am released his EC1 from Ensel to Lake Odessa to proceed eastward to Detroit.

D708 with work for Asahi and GLC today.

The rail train (C008 or W008) finished work last night and tied down in Grand Ledge I believe.

At 7 they worked at CH 78 then Laid rail at 92, 93 and CH 100.

D702-30 @ 11:40am backing westward on the Holland Dock Track near mp CG25.3 with: OLS Caboose + 13 empty Gons & CSXT engine #6244.

Note: Nothing heard for Q327-30 yet. I'm guessing they might be getting crewed by last night's N801-30 crew that had passed by Bangor mp CG60.7 this morning at 00:26 & ended up tying down in Wells Siding mp CG41.4 Had heard Dispatch telling this crew a taxi would be bringing them to Grand Rapids from Wells.

WB rail train just went under I-96 near Grand Ledge

Appears they are laying down rail west of the bridge over the Grand River and going westward. Not sure how far they will go.
