Q335 sounds like it's coming in at 0635.
This is my life. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

If this is a problem get used to it.

It appears that the train of sand hoppers coming out of storage from flint is tied down at Ivanrest in Grandville. Anyone know when a crew is called to take this west?

CSXT 4750 is the lone unit on this train.

D700 is currently sitting in Grandville just east of the Wilson crossing with CSXT 4729, 8508, 2680, three boxes and one loaded lumber car. No scanner with me so I'm not sure what their plan is.

Edit: switches are lined for Standale Lumber. :)

That was G154, a grain load from Webberville this morning. CSX 401 was trailing. Not sure why, but instead of a G010 crew putting the train together, and turning it over to a road crew as a G train for the trip to Ohio, this grain load was put together as G154 and the crew made it only as far as Brighton with it.

Q33515 this morning had four units. Leader was CSX 8520, Couldnt read the back three, but the back two looked like four axel units for GRP yard and local service.
