Amtrak 364 has been stopped in Swartz Creek for over an hour, not sure why. Everything else I can see (from ~Bancroft to ~W Flint) has also been stopped.

Stacks and racks east by 205 at 23:35. 256 axles.

What was either a lite locomotive or a very short train went SB past MP 22.5 at 5:15 am, an unusual time for a train on the Precision Railroad nowadays. Maybe a late/early 513?

Those are the Charter Wire cars that came up on Amtrak 352 last night. I wonder where they’re going.
