P364 was on time at Durand at 8:00. I don’t have the app but spider sense tells me they are in East Lansing currently.

9/29 - 3:26 - WB 2-unit CN/CN mixed freight with a bunch of sand hoppers on the head end - potentially an X401 if E251 ran already earlier in the evening. It's basically a unit train worth of sand hoppers so maybe we've had an EB S756 recently?
