K-862 with CP-8779 and CP-8625 is sitting at east end of Wyoming yard waiting
for a re-crew. What is this train doing here? Anyone?

I've heard that it's bound for Webberville... but not 100% sure.

Power for 327 included Boxcar GEVO 3220, Dash 8 Widecab 496 in CLEAN YN2, GP15-1 1501 in Boxcar paint and Ex. Mid Michigan #24. Quite a lashup for sure. Getting ready to Leave Wyoming.

***1501 is a GP15T, one of 25 former Chessie Units. A rare breed of EMD Geep.

BNSF 9208, 8752 with West Olive empties south at Riley St. Holland 11:14 AM.

Through CG 95 Stevensville at 14:21 EDT. Was going slow and took a while to get here, so must have a bad EOT.

E80103 had 544 axles, 3 more cars than usual. Those extra cars were tacked onto the rear of the train, and were BNSF hoppers.

Also, the horn was horrible on that BNSF 9208.

EDIT- Finally moving onto the NS Chicago Line at 16:02 EDT. Will go down to the CSX Barr at Curtis/CP497.

MMRR #24 left with Q327 @ 16:20. Sad to see you go.
