Anything heading for East Lansing on the Plymouth Sub?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2023
L302 thru EE Brighton at 17:48, no numbers from me though, too dark. Probably an hour out from East Lansing. 328 axles works out to 76 cars with the third engine and a single articulated rack with 6 axles.Michiganrailfan123 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2023 5:16 pmAnything heading for East Lansing on the Plymouth Sub?
L303 departing the siding at 17:53 with 5333 and 3408, 103 cars per the 424 axles reported.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2023
You did good Tom. Leader was 999, Trailing was 8095, middle unit was 3284. I believe all units were facing forward. By Howell at 18:06 with 78 cars including two auto racks in the middle, one of those was one of those articulated cars, (if that is what they call them) that looks like two separate cars but with no coupler between them. 8095 looks to be a good candidate to mate with 4045 on L304-305. It was even facing the right direction so they don't have to spin it in GRP if it gets off in Lansing.

L302-14 @ 21:25 westward reported by the Defect Detector mp CH104.3 Mulliken, Mi with 414 axles. CSX engines #999 + #3284 & 100 cars (101 cars by visual count for the Articulated car). He had work in Lansing. The 6 axle Articulated car is counted as being 1 car by CSX. Axle math doesn't support three engines, the CSX #8095 must have been set off in Lansing.BL2-1843 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2023 6:15 pmYou did good Tom.
