The NS northbound grain train reported at Carleton late this morning is probably going to Lake State. There are no grain trains at Webberville or Grand Ledge that I know of unless I totally slept through one.

NB Grain train at Carleton, 1153. Missed the symbol. 5363/363 leading.
Has anyone gotten a symbol for this one? and we have a grain train in Webberville/Williamston still right?

Q327-04 @ 07:19am westward reported by DD mp CG19.1 w/ 372 axles & 5,356 ft long. CSXT engines #5468 + #7801 & 90 cars. He has work in Waverly/Holland today.

The CSXT engines #5468 + #7801 were on yesterday's D705-03. Was expecting to see CSXT engines #591 + #3004 on today's Q327 which were on yesterday's Q326. The CSXT #3004 is DPU capable, the #591 isn't. Won't know for sure what the 2nd engine on Q327 is until it goes by the Bangor Cam or someone gets a visual.

[NOTE:] CSXT #7801 Confirmed - saw the #5468 + #7801 at the Holland Depot mp CG25.3 backing eastward lite to pick up their train out on the main.

Amtrak P371-04 @ 07:27:20am westward Bangor's Center St crossing mp CG60.35 with IDTX engine #4604 & 3 SuperLiner cars & 0 passengers on/off at the station mp CG60.5
