Watching this on the cityofholland.com/645/MIHollandCAM is pretty cool. Not as cool as the Downtown Bangor site though...

D708-17 returned to Lansing with 61 cars from Howell at 18:00 after leaving 42 cars parked on the main in Howell for GLC and picking up 50 cars from GLC. They had eight cars in their consist for Ashai-Kesei they had to take back with them because they could not handle any further cars today plus picked up 3 Ogihara scrap loads after setting off two empties. They took a 90 minute delay at Ogihara when the switch would not lock up tight for them after their pick up and had to call a maintainer to repair it.
