Whoops, misread the time from Tom’s report at Vine. That is indeed the case.

Do you know what’s up with 350/351 there at Porter?

Assume it’s C800-29 coming closer to DD 91.9 right now

Thanks for the report on C800-28

C800-29 @ 12:30/12:45 pm EB reported at Vine mp 92.0 with BNSF #5928 + 130(?) loaded coal cars + rear BNSF #8597 DPU. (Assuming DD 91.9 didn’t report)

L303-29 @ 12:33 had Job Briefing with RN Dispatcher in Grand Rapids, Mi: CSX #34 + CSX #3310 with 41 cars (4 loads and 37 empties) at 1,592 tons and 2,615 ft long. He only had one track of cars to pull. He is ready to depart and has work in Lansing.
