Q326 Bangor mp CG60.7 approach @ 09:50:29 with CSX engines #3126 + #842 & 111 cars.

[Tom49801]

What I assume is Q327 is whistling thru Zeeland now at 20:00hrs.

A BNSF covered hopper is ready for pickup at Vanden Bosch feed elevator. This is their 2nd car of the new year!

No Q327 so far tonight as of 21:58. At this time, D801-15 with CSX engines #336 + #3417 went to Grand Rapids to pick up cars and in enroute to Holland to drop all but 1 car off & then is to deliver the remaining car to Grand Junction Siding mp CG53.9 Someone had said it's a coach car but this hasn't been verified.

After going through the CSX radio call logs, it was a loaded coal car that was picked up by N801-14 in Grand Junction siding today Jan 16th.

Am late today as I have been shoveling snow all morning. Q32918 went by Howell at 09:15 with CSX 945+576 and 64 cars, Supposed to be only a six car pick up at Lansing, Earlier, G24617 Webberville grain load went east at 04:00 with CSX 3427+824 and 93 cars. 3427 would have been the unit I missed on the empty going west. Q32818 went east at 07:37 with CSX 779+3297 and 118 cars. 3297 would have been the unreadable 2nd unit on Q326 yesterday behind 779..
