Is Y121 in charge of traffic between GR and Waverly instead of D700 now?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2021
No, but D700 has been getting screwed by a lot of external factors as of late. They are having Y121 help out.

E800-30 @ 13:43:03 westward Bangor’s Monroe Street crossing mp CG60.72 with BNSF engine #9290 & 130 empty coal cars & rear BNSF #8496.
D700-01 @ 13:56:26 westward Bangor’s Monroe St crossing mp CG60.72 with CSX engine #6546 & 12 cars.
D706-01 @ 14:34 eastward reported DD mp CH126.3 w/ 468 axles. CSX engines #828 + #5294 & 112 cars (58 loads + 54 empties, from his earlier job briefing). The axle math works out for 114 cars, but he probably has the Well cars with double stacked containers that were on yesterday's Q326 which had added 2 cars to its DD axle math).

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2021
Thanks MUCH L.R.F. Red Rocket was on that job as well. By the way, I eventually thought of his real name, before you told me yourself.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 12:41 pm[Sorry Bob. Was in a bunch of meetings yesterday afternoon/evening and neglected to throw that one up. V744-26 with CSX 3026/CSX 539, both units forward facing.
D708-01 just set off 62 cars in the Howell pass for GLC, picked up 31 cars from GLC and departed back to Lansing at 15:50. I believe they have some shorts to pick up at Ogihara on the way back as well.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2021
I was wondering about the trailing engine's number not matching what was on yesterday's D705. During D706's job briefing with the RN Dispatcher he had said twice to the Dispatcher his trailing engine was the #5290. This conversation can be replayed in the Broadcastify "Grand Rapids Area Shortlines" archives time block 12:57pm/1:27pm at the 0:39 time mark.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2021
There is a grain train taking to dispatch and they were waiting for 706 to get out of they way then they will be on their way. Any idea if this is a new one or the one in Webberville?
