I was just west of 112th by the yard switch and about 20 cars after the DPU passed he came to a complete stop....he's blocking 120th, Lakewood, and 112th. Traffic, needless to say, is all messed up.

12:29 - G076 east from Webberville calling a clear pair for Brighton, sounded like 461 was leading.
They had to pass GLC in Howell. No visual on account of my car being in the shop.
Green Oak reports 373 axles which works out to 90 cars with a +1 axle error.
