Somebody has an approach set up to go north at Wick, presumably D73519 at its usual time. Nothing on the scanner yet and no light for Romulus yet.

As of 7:05pm, the St Joseph Bridge is still stuck in its open position & hearing they cannot get the hydraulic pumps to energize.
Q326-19 has been re-crewed as the D802-19 with CSX engines #3176 + #2016. They do not have operating PTC & are to drop off 14 cars in Holland.
Q327-19 is also waiting on the other side of the bridge at near Paw Paw Rd Ave mp CG85.41 for the issue to be resolved. CSX engines #3414 + #5368 & 154 cars.
As of 9:56pm, the St Joseph Bridge is being tested after repairing. Q327-19 & D802-19 are both waiting to cross the bridge.
D802-19 @ 10:02pm has his signal to proceed eastward over the St Joseph Bridge. Cleared the St Joseph Bridge @ 10:17pm & a viewer there saw it also has CSX engine #3411 as a rear DP.
​Q327-19 @ 11:00pm is still sitting at Paw Paw Ave to update his PTC with a NS bulletin order he's now getting from the St Joe Bridge Tender over the radio.
D802-19 (Q326) @ 11:08:39pm at Bangor's Division ST crossing mp CG60.93 with CSX engines #3176 + #2016 & 107 cars & CSX engine #3411 as a rear DP.
D802-19 was to drop off 14 cars in Holland, but, those plans were cancelled & he's to run straight to Grand Rapids.

Q327-20 @ 8:32am reported by the DD mp CG19.1 with 344 axles & 4,984 ft long. CSX engines #3411 + #3176(?) & 83 cars. He has work for Waverly/Holland, sounds like he's picking up 6 cars & has none to drop off.

No D700 last night on account of no where for them to run around their train, dead trains in every siding (or on the main) between Wells and Livingston.

Yes. Probably still some slow orders but by last night they were good to go. Q326 is late today presumably because the Q327 crew from yesterday got to Chicago too late to take the train this morning on time.

EB on the NS which came off the CSX at CP 497 and is lined for the CSX at Porter just cleared CP 487...I'm assuming it's this Q326.
