[Jetlink]

Q326 approaching WE Sawyer. It appears they will hold the main and wait for Q327 to go into the hole.

Q326-14 @ 10:51am eastward reported by the DD mp CG108.9 with 496 axles & 6,509 feet long. CSX engine #884 leading & 121 cars & rear CSX engine #3198. He has set offs for Arlington Metals at Sawyer mp CG105.6

[Jetlink]

Q326 and Q327 both currently between the lights at Sawyer. Q326 holding the main.

edit to add:
Q327 clear and on it's way west at 11:20. Appears Q326 may have cut at least 1 crossing. Wonder if they are staying a while or just cut them for a few minutes? Is cutting crossings easier with a DPU on the rear? seems like it could be.

E800-13 @ 11:25am advised by Dispatch to begin his move out of Holland towards the east end of Saugatuck mp CG32 watching out for the welding crew. BNSF engine #5734 leading.

Anybody happen to know what train that would be for sure, and where it's headed? I got a little ahead of it to shoot it, but it seems to have stopped someplace behind me.

D706-14 @ 4:35pm eastward reported from Snow Road with CSX engine #751 leading & most likely is paired with the CSX #3203. Does anyone know what the mile post is for Snow Road? it's not shown in the time table & I always hear the trains making reference to this road.
