Q32912 by Howell at 08:22 with 3228 and the same 60 cars. There were at least 52 cars on main two to pick up but see they did not get any of them. Q32812 went east at 05:12 with CSXT 5456+5323. When I heard the UP unit was on Q326 yestereday, the 3rd unit in the consist, I suspected it would return to Chicago on 327 to add to the one unit 329 yesterday and see it did.

Two WB units running light just turned south at Plymouth. CSX 5456 + 5323. A local is poised to go south, sitting at the diamond. No scanner with me.

UPDATE: 5 minutes later, the local cleared, using the seldom-used west track. CSX 2772 + 3 lumber centerbeams, 2 boxes and 2 tankers.

Q32913 by Howell at 08:40 with CSX 5431+62. 108 cars and 6800 feet of train. 1st time in three days for more than one unit out of Detroit. Taking siding at Williamston to meet Q328 was was setting off in Lansing at 09:00. No pick up for Q329 because they are already "maxed out". D708 took another 25 cars back to Lansing yesterday to add on to the 52 cars 329 did not pick up yesterday. Looks like another D707 to GRP soon.

Q328-13 @ 07:22 reported by the DD mp CH126.3 with 534 axles. CSX #7204 + CSX #5434 + CN #8911 129 cars. Axle math worked for 3 engines & heard the CSX #7204 leading from his radio calls, so, I'm assuming Q328 has the same power that was on yesterday's Q326.
