From the updates I have been reading here it seems like early afternoon between noon and 2pm

LSRC Z126 departed from Saginaw Yard at 10:30am with the 1174 solo, and around 70 cars. Nice mix of everything for Bay City, including a long block of stone cars. They ended up swapping the 1174 for the 800 and returning to Saginaw.

301 left the yard in Bay City around 2 this afternoon with the 1174 and 1162, with all stone cars.

GLC just went south through Durand, and is about to turn south onto its own tracks. HESR also went north out of Durand about 10 minutes.

Got a couple windmill trains in Saginaw yard. One empty may roll south later today might have BNSF power as there is two units on the out bound too. The second one seems to be all blades lined for the Bad Axe sub. HESR 820 job was going to take it today but got canceled...May run tommorow.
