You’re probably right GP30M4216 lots of cars in Waverly yard … and maybe the extra unit could be for helper service on the east Saugatuck Hill for Q326-22 if needed (slick rails ice and snow)

D700-22 @ 12:32 westward is headed for Saugatuck siding mp CG32 to let Q326 pass by & then continue westward.
