"U302-18" has 5327 leading (WM sticker unit) and 5366 trailing. Unknown yet where it is headed but will meet L303 at Williamston.
Re: CSX Train Location Updates - March 2023
14:19 - L303 calling a clear pair for Trowbridge, looked like a single unit leading but the head end beat me to the crossing. U302 has a Y/G at WE Trowbridge.

Looked to be like a normal grain empty to me. Must have gone to Grand Ledge again. L303 had single unit 4575. Evidently they finally get L305's power back to back again with the turning of 4003.

18:48 - L302 west through South Lyon. CSXT 5387 leading, per radio.

We don't have many people that post updates east of South Lyon, so oftentimes the first report of a westbound won't come until the train starts heading through Salem.
