West Olive empties south at Riley St. Holland 6:55 PM. BNSF 6163 25th Anniversary on head end.

[BL2-1843]

12:34 - L305-09 eastbound approaching Okemos. No visual so not sure on the power.

4014+4228. And, like the last time these two units were first paired together, they are both facing the same direction again and not back to back. No GLC pick up again on Thursday, so 305 just keeps adding cars to whats in the siding, over 80 again. 302 went west by Howell at 18:15 with smoky joe 4036 single unit and a short train again.

Anyone know if M327-10 has cleared New Buffalo? I’m by the tracks in NB but nothing doing. Any word I’m M326-10? I hope to see something soon. No scanner traffic so I think I am too late.
