Looks quiet at the GRE. The 2 Amways are gone so it looks like they went east yesterday but no outbounds last night. The usual Amtrak.

Gotta assume it's CP X50008, as that's the only one on that list that should be going through zeeland this morning.
Takes a check:

Umm..they are? I caught D00609 near Vriesland at 1:45pm dumping ballast. They were only dumping in a few remote spots while I was watching them, CSXT 8156 leading. They were all CSX dumpers with solar panels on the side, two guys riding on the cars near the front 1/3 controlling the dumping with handheld electronic devices. Should still be between Vriesland and Zeeland right now.

I wish I could help you, Steve - my scanner is really silent today - must be atmospheric conditions.
WAIT! I think I just heard D00609...

Did you scroll up a couple of posts to my lunch update 20 mins ago? D00609 between Vriesland and Zeeland.
Checking again, they are now at Waverly as of 14:34.
Also, per cnw8835, N90704's cars are at Wyoming Yard, but no power on the train, so it's not ready to go west yet.

I caught D716-09 switching cars in East Yard, then returning to North Yard with CSX 6048 and 0 cars. Seems alittle too quiet today in Plymouth.
