Any ethanol trains with power from the Midwest today? I've seem to have lost track.

Tonight's Q-107 out of Marion will have UP 6373 (an SP painted AC4400CW) and BNSF 5681 (another AC4400CW). The crew is called for 7:00 PM and the train usually leaves about 8:00 and with sunset still at or around 9, the train should pass through the area with adequate light. This train typically runs with KCS power but obviously tonight will be different.

Q335 now arriving Wyoming Yard.

Must have had to double the hill. Just got permission by the signal at the East end of E Saugatuck, main to main, in a westbound direction.

GRE brought back another cut of AEX CH's plus a few Amways? about 6pm.
