CSX GRE MQT Train Location Update 8-1-08

[Raildudes dad]

As DR reported, only 8 Kings inbound yesterday, theye left 4 or 5 in the yard so they didn't stall leaving town (had 2 loads for Amway also). I doubt thye are going back today since the contractor is finishing installing grouted anchors in Ada today. The usual Amtrak, the 55? is pushing today like the past few days.

According to Red, there's supposed to be a G979 running up to the LSRC in Flint. Zack, can you give us an update on that one please?

Maybe we should have stayed at the station for D709, Mike.
