Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Sept 2022
M327 is OD. He will have the same power as yesterday obviously but flipped. The OLS unit will be the DPU, roughly 70 cars back. Should follow Amtrak out. Train is a good size today, just shy of 190 cars so I am told.

M327-22 @ 06:48 Grand Rapids, Mi job briefing with the RN Dispatcher: CSX engine #3184 + & mid dpu CSX engine #4568 (Operation Life Saver) & 184 cars (63 loads + 121 empties) @ 10,812 feet long. He’s ready to depart. He had said he had “dpu” but didn’t say mid or rear. They want him to stop at Saugatuck Siding mp CG33 to pick up CSX engines #3080 + #238 that yesterday’s M327 was to do but was too long of a train to be bothered & as today’s M327 is also saying. A decision is being waited upon if they’re to stop or not.
