Around 19:19 last night, a NB grain empty G702 with CSX 8902 (ST70AH) cleared Deshler. Did it end up in Wixom for LSRC or Plymouth to go west?

According to reliable sources, it’s supposed to go west.

It went to Wixom for LSRC

Does anybody know what just came by south lyon? I wasn't awake fast enough the get him on the scanner but it had a crazy foreign horn sound.

Vinnie, that was G801-05, grain load from Grand Ledge with 95 cars, five more than the 90 empties that went west on G802-27 on March 3rd. The five additional cars were on the rear of the train. Fast turn around for a grain train from Grand Ledge. Lately, it has taken them much longer to get a load out that it does at Webberville. The power? CSX 802 on the lead, 3058 trailing.

G125-02 (grain train) @ 12:51 Grand Rapids job briefing with the RN Dispatcher: CSX engines #5465 + #5448 & 88 cars (88 Loads + 0 Empties) & 11,807 tons & 5,373 feet long. He'll be departing Grand Rapids soon.

L302 *should* be making a pickup at Howell, a big one if I’m hearing correctly.
