It had some sort of commemorative stenciling on the side beneath the cab windows. Didn't manage to read it but noticed it was there.

Q334 made it to Howell from GRP in less than three hours with his 115 cars, and then GLC beat him to the diamond by less than five minutes to delay him for who knows how long. GLC is sometimes at Ann Pere picking up and setting off for as much as 45 minutes.

Q326 currenty at Ivanrest. Has 3 autoracks near the end of the train. Kind of unusual for up here, but since there's a road freight going to Toledo again, I figure that's where they're going.

There were 2 auto racks in 334 yesterday. One of them had severe damage to the top portion of the door on one end. I wonder if they are goibg somewhere east for repairs?

The autoracks are through traffic for Walbridge. I've also been noticing some Lake State traffic on 326 and 335 that 334 sets off at Plymouth.
