Another good day for railfanning. Caught Amtrak at East Saugatuck - Q326 was waiting there to come out on the main and head east. Followed Q326 to Wyoming - X500 was in the yard, and the local was swithching in the west end.
On the way back to Holland, caught N901 (?) heading east into GR with empties.

I'm pretty sure Chuck does everything he can in GR and then has then run it to Greenville to use the pit for the underside inspection. They were looking for a pit over this way but I don't know if they found one to use.

2nd one was added last night because it wasn't there yesterday (drove by twice - if I missed it, they need to take my drivers license away due to vision problems :D )
