Per a Chicago source, look for w24612 on Sunday. It's currently in Indiana enroute through Grand rapids and Plymouth heading to Flint, a windmill train.

Loaded windmill train with BNSF leader, UP trailing through Howell, MI e.b. around 0915. Train making a left turn at Plymouth to go North.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2018
For the rest of the story, Lead unit on W24612, BNSF 7204 had a major locomotive failure with much oil spewing along the walkway somewhere east of Lansing. S38513, CSX 7677+9038 with 73 cars (all from Plymouth) got delayed an hour in the pass at Fowlerville by W246 because of this. Current plan is to set the 7204 off at Plymouth and continue on to Flint with the second unit, UP 8376, also facing east taking the train to Flint. S38513 departed Fowlerville at 09:15, W24612 currently at Brighton at 09:30.~Z~ wrote:A field reporter says w24612 windmill train is at Fowlerville 8:27am.
Meanwhile over night, Q38510 with 387 (not 357 reported earlier at Plymouth) and 5384 went west at 23:38, and Q38412 went east at 03:05 with CSX 225+4812 and a four axel unit and 110 cars.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: May 2018
I was listening to the RN giving blocks to 384 about 2100 and heard them chatting about 326/27 being extended to Detroit so maybe some more traffic for the Plymouth Sub. Also 384 has something high and wide tonight although they didn't elaborate as to what.
