19:36 - L302-13 thru EE Brighton, aforementioned power, mid-train DPU pushing hard. Earlier I barely made out L305 taking the siding at Fowlerville, no surprise given that L302's 11,000' wouldn't fit in a siding around here.

L30513 is in the siding at Howell for L302. After 302 gets by, 305 will pick up GLC cars in the transfer and return to Ogihara to pick up cars they left there going east.

Wow, I thought L303 has some large lines of freight. Than I saw this post . Assumed most cars are empty for 2 engines to pull a 2.2 mile long train.

22:04 CT: P370 by Michigan City, 2 hours, 29 minutes late

Speaking of loads and empties, yesterday afternoon thru Brighton, L302-11's DPU was placed after the 79th car, with 114 cars behind it. Is it standard practice to place the loads ahead of empties to prevent string lining? I presume the DPU more or less separates the loads and empties.

L30513 is in the siding at Howell for L302.

Explains why I was able to pick them up so clearly! Regarding radios, any word of L302 having radio issues? On their way thru Brighton them and dispatch could barely talk to each other. Not sure if this had to do with tonight's weather.
