As they were passing CH 43 they were on the phone with dispatch discussing 10 Mile Rd's crossing malfunctioning.

Does anyone have any idea if D706 ran? I'm still pouring thru the scanner archives (Plymouth/CN channel 08 & Grand Rapids Short Lines' channel 14 for EC1's) trying to find him. There are some missing times in the archives.

No, They hooked up generators shortly before the G764 came through so all was working well by the time they got to 10 Mile.

Tom it probably did not run.

Track in Okemos around Dobie Rd was taken out of service due to a washout. Also, there was another washout between Chilson Rd and Beck Rd East of AP.

D705 was able to make it by both but I guess the Dobie road section was taken out of wrvide after D705 squeaked by. G764 was on slow orders (so was D705) for 7 MPH in Howell. I passed by numerous track crew vehicles headed west on 96 today from Plymouth with dump trucks of ballast and a couple of back hoes.

M of W. working the wash out between Howell and Brighton informed the RN at 20:42 that it would be a LONG TIME yet before they get the track back in service there.
