I just turned on the Durand feed to hear that train 390 is stopped on main 1 in Durand due to an air leak.
Desk 9 dispatcher asked the amtrak conductor to listen for an air leak while passing by.

That would have been 490--who swapped crews with some train at Pontiac and then waited for 354 to clear at MAL before heading down the hill.....

500 is in Pontiac again... Wierd. They must have changed the routing so they dont have to work Durand? Most of their cars are usually for Pontiac, so maybe they have them just run down there. I would think they still work the Durand yard though, because they also usually carry HESR cars. Unless 501 is picking up the HESR cars from Flint and now works Durand?

Southbound Triple Crown waiting at Delray. Two other intermodals stacked up with it, one next to and the other behind it.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
