While everyone yapping about the Plymouth sub, CSX train either U315 or M510 is sitting in Romulus with 1973 leading the cheesie system heritage unit. Unsure when it will continue to Detroit. DPU is having major issues.

Who is yapping about the Plymouth Sub? Pretty sure most of today's updates were on the Grand Rapids Sub, or Grand Rapids Terminal sub, OR the Fremont Sub... Figure it out

This is just a joke.....

I believe that was a CSX employee testing the Zeeland DD since M327 reported at Saugatuck when that DD was activated. I also heard it beep twice
