Q385 came to a stop on the east side of South Lyon at 6pm. Don't know why-maybe had to be talked by a stop indication at the east end of the siding?

384 had signal problems coming across, but made it to Lansing about 22:20. The dispatcher talked them by the signal at the West end of Ensel.

385 Got recrewed about the same time but are waiting for a signal out of Trowbridge because CN has the diamond.

The two CSX trains will be meeting between Ensel & North Lansing.

Hmm. If 384 gets any later, they might catch me on my way out in the morning. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

D900-23 is currently going through Stevensville westbound. 98ft, 8 axles at DD91.9
E800-18 is currently going through Benton Harbor. Sounds like BNSF 9152 leading.

Q327 going through Riverside at 1:22am. Sounds like ?CSXT 3255? leading. I wonder if the AEP substation goes out again.
It seems that power outages have coincided with CSX landbarges going by. On Friday and Monday Q326 went by me at work a few minutes after the power went out. 3rd shift got sent home at 2am when the power went out in Hagar Twp. MI.
N800 at Stevensville...BNSF 61?? leading.

That would be Q384 with that power. 66 intermodal containers up front, 101 cars behind. By Howell at 00:38. Had a red block at Ann Pere, but so did Q385.

Two for one, and its been a long time since this happened here, V76419 grain empty, CSX 3122+3037, both units facing west by Howell at 12:34. 30 minutes later, Q38521 went west with 26 containers on the head end and 100 cars trailing. CX 5413+7696 on this one. Might have to take some heart medication if this keeps up, which is better than any depression meds with 19 months of next to nothing.
