UPDATE: Cleared 7 Mile Rd. at 20:50, with 2 covered hoppers and 26 (mostly Sultran) open hoppers.

Q327-26 has CSXT 5391 leading, currently west at Holland Depot. 552 axles, 7749 feet at 19.1 DD. I’d guess the BNSF warbonnet should still be attached to this unit.

Q327 went into Gross to meet P370, kept it a rolling meet. P370 has IDTX 4622 and 3 Superliners, nothing trailing.
Amtrak will not be able to pass WE Hudsonville until a high wind warning expires at 23:10. Also has false/partial activations at 9th Street and Lincoln Avenue in Holland.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
P371 just went past Glenlord Rd, Stevensville, 9:15 am. Anybody know the reason for delay? Looks like they left GRR 11 minutes late and then racked up more delays.

Q32927 by Howell at 10:00. CSXT 514+830 with 125 cars. Among other things, they had 20 loads of stone and riprap, the empty VSR ribbon rail train that went east loaded earlier, (where ever it went, VSR 336 and other numbers close to it) and a ton of empty well cars on the rear. Earlier, Q32827 went east at 07:17 again for the third day in a row at this time with CSXT 44 single unit and 47 cars.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
First off, Amtrak only had one unit today, so they may have had to turn the train this morning. Also was lot of weather near GR this morning. People on the webcam also saying they had some dragging equipment at a detector...
Q326-27 with CSXT 294 leading, CSXT 5388 second unit according to chat, has an Approach at Hilltop at 11:28. 432 axles, 5928 feet at 91.9 DD.
Edit, listening back to the feed, sounds like Amtrak hit a tree around Saugatuck, dragged along so they had to stop. Also flood warnings on Fremont Sub/near GR. Defect detector at 44.2 then gave a “system failure,” so they had to walk the train.
13:30 - Q326-27 has a false/partial at 57th Street, CG 36.3, has to slow to 15 right before the hill without pushers, let’s see how this goes...

Posted on Facebook by a local railfan about 3:15PM 8/27/18:
"Trouble @ Fox Siding
Cascade Twp. Fire is headed there to handle what is being described as a medical issue, say they see a train stopped but no other details."
I've got the superscanner on and not hearing anything.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates: August, 2018
#6062 was dropping off a yellow (UP/CNW) hopper around 2:00pm at whatever they call that feed place east of Zeeland. First time I have seen a car there in a while, but I don't get over there a lot. Rest of the train was back by Zeeland Lumber, looked like at least one hopper and one loaded center beam.
