Eastbound coal train going through benton harbor right now. Bnsf 5793 & 9212. No scanner on me so i don't know if it is an N903 or an N956.

While out on my bike saw 2 engines, CSX 7549 and 7326, running light in Plymouth. Came north then turned east; cleared Main St. at 20:35. Maybe Q272?

Anyone know if that coal drag turned out to be an N956? I forgot to crank up the GR scanner, it is possible the helpers to any N956 got back/died before I was able to hear them.

Might be a good night to have the scanners on over in the east :)
