The new power on L302-11 yesterday behind 3175 was 5268 and 8017. More than likely 8017 was set off in Lansing because the math on the axel count did not add up to three six axel units. 8017 was one the most badly needed candidates I have seen for a wash job in years.

Thanks for the info :) I heard L304 earlier today with the #8017 in the Grand Ledge area.
