N903 through Riverside at 4:35pm, BNSF 6142, BNSF 9266 for power.

CSXT 6954 is currently leading D900-07 through Riverside. They finished their work in Benton Harbor around 9:55pm and departed there eastbound toward Grand Rapids.

Re: CSX Train Location Update 5-7-12
There is a siding that crosses Enterprise Way and follows it west for a few hundred yards. Bowater itself has at least two tracks that go into the building. I'm not sure how many they can put in the building at once, but I imagine they could fit ten in there if the tracks ran the entire length of the building. (5 cars per track.)
Usually, they pull a couple of empties out coupled onto the loads and park them on one of the tracks off the lead (2 tracks enter the building, like I said before) and then push the loads in the building, then come out, grab the empties and take them out to the main, line the switch for the main, and couple onto their train.
I imagine they are up around Wells or (East) Saugatuck by now.
