Big cut of CH's at the GRE in the GDLK track, might be the outbound from yesterday from King. Amtrak is half way to Richmond Street again this morning.

Per JT, Q326 is at Grand Ledge with CSXT 338(?) and 7517. They are waiting on a maintainer to finish fixing a broken rail in the Cash Block, currently. D708 was also switching at Lowes.

Yes, 338.

Q335 was stopped at Burkley Rd this morning. Conductor walked the train (around 65 cars) to find one of the gons near the end of train was having some brake issues.

So isn't Burkley Rd between Williamston and Okemos? Q33517 was just by Howell @ 14:40 with CSX 7540,2561 and a recrew out of Detroit on it.

X50017 should have CP 9670 on it when he gets this far east.

So what did Q335 have on? Only several hours early today I guess. Was out and about all AM and evidently missed it.
It was Q334, not Q335.

Slip of the finger. Sorry, meant to type 334. That's what I get for not proofreading. Oh, and it also had 335's power from yesterday on it.

Since I see no mention, I presume that pair of INRD Rent-a-Wreck SD60's are still at Rougemere.

Saw 500 sitting at Waverly waiting for Amtrak to pass around 9:45 pm. A little late today, eh?
