No worries haha, I just caught them coming through Howell 10-15 mins ago with 382 and 386

Looked like they were going to work Ann Pere when I was going over the bridge on I96

I am happy you caught them. With 102 cars it will be fun to watch them switch the interchange. It could be another long night at AnnPere and BL20 might possibly have a full report.
