W001-10 East was scheduled for 0745 out of Barr for Grand Rapids. Should be CSX 6025 + 3

M326 was called for 0500 so I’d assume they’re ahead of 001. Power looks like an SD70 and SD40 of sorts.

[GLC 392]

M326 is just now at 492 on NS, had to wait for an inspector and NS ran 327 off first. I don’t see W001 behind him as of yet.

[Schteinkuh]

M326 goes dead at 1700 with a super heavy train, and they're still stuck at 482 waiting on another WB on the NS. To add insult to injury, there's a broken rail at 128.2. Looks like the geo set will be a late afternoon/evening arrival.

[GLC 392]

326 is getting on home rails finally.
