Q234-15 is also near Plymouth, and will likely go via the connection at CP-Lou.

Demo man is at the GRE. The storage building west of the office is flat, the old battery charging building behind the office is flat and the excavator was flattening the red building inside the pen at about 4:30.

Heard D700 heading east/north towards Holland from Wells about 6:10pm. Pretty sure they died at Hudsonville around 7pm.

That would be Q321. It was stopped earlier this evening in Grand Blanc just north of Hill Road waiting for some track work to be finished about a mile a way from it. I wonder if there is more track work in Novi that made it stop.

Hmm....I noticed a large pile of ties north of the Grand River overpass the other day. You could see where ties had been replaced on the main and the siding. It looked like about every 5th tie or so was being replaced. But the train was stopped south of where that work was being done and I didn't see any other equipment in the area. But anything's possible.
