D801 just released their EC1 down from West Olive. I did not hear any info about where they are headed for.
Also, does anyone know if yesterday's Q335 made it all the way to GR or if they tied down somewhere outside of town?

Signals will be out for 6 - 8 weeks according to the RN this morning. Due to a lightning strike on a communication tower yesterday.

I had the scanner on all night last night and never heard so much as a pop or squeak of static.

Well, 370 had service disruption last night according to Amtrak.com, and a maintainer talking to the RN asked if Amtrak was running, and she said no (that was around 1700). But then I heard them last night talking about them tying up in Holland. They deadheaded apparently. I did update that last night :wink:

I was wrong, but I had inaccurate intel.

Last I heard after crew #3 was onboard, (just to get the train beyond Ann Pere) that this crew was to tie the train down at Ensel and would have to put the 155 cars into two different tracks there. They never left Howell until 22:50. They were at Ann Pere trying to figure out the safe way, (according to rules), across the diamond when GLC went south to Osmer, and was still sitting there when they came back north. (even though Q335 finally was starting to go west when GLC showed up northbound.

Some of the trains normally running via Plymouth went on the Lincoln Secondary today, which included.

Q392, which cleared up on their EC1 at 8:15am with CSXT 7569 and 58.

Q392's engines turned on Q231, which departed south around 2:30pm.

G008-20 also ran north with the CSXT 211 and 7312 and arrived at Rougemere just after noon.

A bit late to help some people but Q327 went west from GR about an hour ago. CSX 7557, UP 2025, CSX 9249, 2659, 2692 & 9156. It sounded like at least one, maybe two, of the GeeP's was to be setout at Holland.

Looks like two slug sets to me. Wonder if they're running from the flood? Water can't be far from burying the rails in Grandville
