Caught Q326 going through Grandville this morning. They where doing like 3 MPH. I saw track equipment in the west end of the run around in Grandville, but didn't hear the crew aslign for permission through anyones work limits. Unless there is a slow order on the main west of Wilson Ave somewhere. More of the steel reinforcing beams on two flats and several loaded coil steel cars. 5(?) Inland and 1 CSX in NYC reporting marks.

Please do not poke at the ramp agent because he has the power to make your vacation
memorable or miserable. It all depends on what flight you bags go on.

In addition to CP X500 and Q327 with Bill today, there was Q216 and Q272 between the CP X500 and Q327 trains.
Q216 - CSX 114 and CSX ??11 ( C40-8 ) at 2:05pm going down the Toledo Wye and south to Toledo.
Q272 - CSX 5112 and CSX 482 at 2:20pm going up the Toledo Wye and east to Detroit. NOTE: 11 cars on the train were from Q304.
Also, this morning around 7:30am I saw south of the diamond on the passing siding a good 40+ cars with no locomotives or EOT. On the way home this afternoon, it was gone. Any ideas where all those cars went?

My wife and I were having dinner on the deck when they went by. I was naughty and filled up the firepit with leaves and burned them so that we could enjoy the aroma. Don't tell - I'm sure burnng leaves is banned here in Holland township. What a great night - I'm typing this outside on the deck and listening to Amtrak (I think) going through town...
