Looks like he’s going to be departing soon and working the Holland dock track.

CSX Slug Set #2239 + #6470

[Tom49801]

L303-08 by Howell at 19:32 with 151 cars. 5251-5477+8465 on the head end. There shouldn't be any L302 today because there was no L303 yesterday.

Checked thru the scanner archives to see if maybe a very late or overnight L302 had ran - it hadn't.

Did find G791-06 grain train copied his EC1 to proceed eastward from Grand Ledge to Ensel at 22:46 with CSX engines #3233 + #3366 with an unknown quantity of cars. The engineer had asked Dispatch where are they going to park their train so that they could let their cab driver know & it had sounded like it was to be at Joy Road (??). I have no idea where that is. Are the eastward grain trains empties & the westward are loaded?

On June 6th, L303-06 had CSX engines #3233 + #3366 & when they had arrived at Grand Ledge, they had set off those engines there & had taken CSX engines #5251 + #5477 out of Grand Ledge, placed those onto his train & continued on eastward. Don't know the reason why the engine swaps were made.

Joy road is near Plymouth. The westbounds are empties and the eastbounds are loads (usually).
