D705-31 @ 14:05 copied an EC1 at Ensel mp CH90.0 to take his train into the west end of Grand Ledge Siding mp CH97.8 to set off the last car in his train (a Gondola) due to it having a seized brake & its shoe is completely gone & the wheel has a blue color. Once there, he will advise Dispatch where inside Grand Ledge he can place this car.
