There was another grain empty for Grand Ledge overnight. G802-13 by Howell at 01:00 with 90 cars. 457 was leading but not sure of the second unit which I read as 720, but to much rain beating on the window to know for sure. Perhaps there is something in the scanner archive's on this.
G801-19 (Grain Train) @ 06:38 copied his EC1 for eastward travel from mp CH90 to Ensel with CSX engines #770 + #457 leading.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Never heard or saw L303-19 overnight that was last known to be in Lansing waiting for their locomotives to be refuled so I either totally slept through it, or they are still there. Even though I saw G801-19 myself today, grain load from Grand Ledge, thanks to all who confirmed 770 was the trailing unit on the empty that I was not sure of due to rain beating on the window and guessed it was 720, which was now on the lead. I see I mistook the "7" for a "2'.
