One more oubound for GDLK at the GRE (Now 3), 1+3 on 371

Q335 west at Seymour at 0843. CSX 545 leading if I heard right.

D708 w/4043 opening up the Turner street. Heading to Fowlerville. Ann Pere turn today. Westbound rock train coming at Ann Pere. 708 will hold at Williamston for them.

Westbound CSXT 5418 leading 5498 at Grand Ledge. Didn't hear call sign. Defect detector reports 212 axels. Stone in hopper cars.

BNSF 6377, 9922, 9435, 9917 lite pwr south at Riley St. Holland 1:18 PM.

CSX 6070 lite heading north at Riley St. Holland 1:52 PM.
And returning south lite at 2:09 PM.

K901-05 at Fox. Following behind Y106 westbound to Wyoming.

Edit: K901 at Seymour at 1247.

13:38 EDT: RN says 151 is tripping the approach on and off, but haven't had them call for EC1 yet.

1418 EDT. K901 just entered Wyoming Yard, double ES40DC lead, all brand new open hopper cars hauling ballast. Instructions are to tie down.

At 14:14, d700 went from single main to 1 in Grandville. Slug set 2348 & 2501 and all boxes. First time out with my new camera, should be some nice stuff later

K33906 by Plymouth North turning east 14:53 CSX 7590 4015

15:13 EDT: Z151 south at Leonard St

1536 EDT. Z151 currently entering Wyoming Yard. 3003 lead? possibly 3002 lead.

D801 west at Grandville at 1707. Sounds like they may have switched to CSX power.

CSX 545, 524 lite north at Riley St. Holland 5:45 PM.

HEARD Z15107 TALKING TO THE RN EARLIER. MQT TRACK INSPECTOR WAS TRYING TO HOLD TRAIN SOUTH OF TURNER. RN HAD Y297 SITTING IN THE RUN AROUND. 151 WOULD HAVE WENT ON THE LAW BEFORE THEY COULD HAVE CLEARED UP. TRACK INSPECTOR EVENTUALLY ALLOWED Z151 TO COME NORTH OF TURNER ST SO THEY COULD CLEAR UP OFF CSX. SOUNDS LIKE SOME MISCOMMUNICATION SOMEWHERE.

Probably out between Elmdale and Grand Ledge, but my best guess would be Lake Odessa to Sunfield. Might get a report from Jetlink, Brysonda or Bob M later.

21:18 EDT: P370 just hit the detector at Zeeland. No Defects, clear Vriesland.
21:21 EDT: P370 clear WE Hudsonville
21:24 EDT: P370 clear EE Hudsonville
21:29 EDT: P370 clear 9
21:32 EDT: P370 clear Grandville
21:35 EDT: P370 approach Ivanrest
21:36 EDT: P370 will go thru Wyoming on Main or Service, whichever way it is lined
21:38 EDT: P370 restricting Lamar

So I just randomly turned on the Allegan County police and fire scanner and they are talking about Amtrak and contacting the Amtrak police. If the train is already back to GR, what could it be? Hmmm....

P370 clear wilson 2134 EDT
