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.

Q329-13 @ 11:30am reported by the DD mp CH104.3. The DD's radio call was stepped on by other radio traffic & couldn't hear the axle count.
Q329-13 @ 12:10pm reported by the DD mp CH126.3 with 440 axles & 6,585 ft long. CSX engines #5431 + #62 & 107 cars.

Q327-14 is currently going through Benton Harbor. Sounds like CSXT 5431 leading.
Sounds like they're shooting for Michigan City to meet Q326.

D907 is an extra D707. In this case, they ran out of Lansing with the 101 cars for Grand Rapids that Q329 has been unable to pick up the last few days.
