P371 okay to open up at Ann St at 0705. The RN told them to expect to meet K242 at Saugatuck.

MQT already went north with what I'm guessing was 2005 in the lead, assuming it still has Wayne's M5. This was around noon. I did not hear them come south, which is what they would normally be doing at noon.
No idea if they're bringing another movement south for this or left power at Wyoming.
Good luck.

Q335 had four locomotives, if he ever made it in. All looked to be very clean as if they just were repainted. Got only a brief look at them.
