Might be the G126 engines that came on the GR Sub, 76 & 433(?) I think it was.

Far off early distant warning I hear a train in the Holland Michigan area @ 12:23

Note: it sounds as though it is heading westbound most likely L301-14

Train was supposed to be G792-10. Heard the RN try to get in touch with the train at 04:00 this morning, and again when the train got to Howell at 12:30. Train had 72 + 440 with 92 cars. Don't know where it went. That was Monday when LRF reported the Grainer FROM Newago was lined to depart Plymouth and mentioned it as a G126 train but never saw it here. G126 does not come from Newaygo but goes to.
