N956 is still in GR, sitting west of Lamar and has alot of issues to deal with. Headend crew onboard now. No crew for pushers yet but a crew is on duty at West Olive at 0700. They are waiting to put the train back together until they know what is going on with the pusher crew. Headend power may need to be fueled also. As of now there is also a 10mph restriction near Howell that they are hoping can be lifted to at least 25 before they get there. They may be doubling over there if not.

Please do not poke at the ramp agent because he has the power to make your vacation
memorable or miserable. It all depends on what flight you bags go on.

An ACe is leading in case they didn't give the lead number. I couldn't clearly see what the number was in the dark though...maybe something like 9203. Second unit was an ugly orange wide cab...probably a dash-9 or AC4400.
987 & 988 on the end.

GRE got an eastbound signal at Fuller at 0815.
D700 ready to go west from Wyoming. They have work at Windquest and Harlem on the Fremont Sub, at East Saugatuck and at Grandville on the way back. CSX 6954 & 2354 for power.

Edit: GRE at east beltline at 0836. Looked like 2 tank cars and 2 covered hoppers.

Heard D700 at Hudsonville about 8:40am westbound. Q326 had been sitting in Holland since 6:30am as cnw8835 had posted(thanks for headsup, left home early but no dice), then just after Amtrak, they were coming west out of the pocket in Holland to the Holland pass to "tie back onto their original train" then would let the dispatcher know when they were ready to go east. Q326 doing the pickup today I guess. Some D800 job is called for around noon, and said some western empties should run, but nothing scheduled yet.
Quite sure that E94508 went west through GR overnight.

Z739 ready to come off the Hugart runner, going to old 17 then heading back to Hugart.

RN reports a coal train going through Livingston, pushers on their way down to meet it.

Also sounds like Y106 is at Seymour.
