Sounds like E800-11 will be holding the main at saugatuck while D700 runs by them on the siding.

I knew if I got a late start this morning to head over to Holland I’d miss a coal train. Bah!

1225 hrs: Q326 clear Zeeland eastbound with a pair of bright future CW44AC units (237&113), 17 double stacks (long count) and 86 mixed. Of note in the consist was one brand new TBOX boxcar (build date 10-17), a flatcars of wheelsets, and the assortment of tractors and tires near the end.

Zeeland lumber has two empty centerbeams on their spur.

From scanner chatter the helper set was returning to West olive to build an empty train.

Anyone know if D700 is running today?

For F’s sake...I came out of Meijer on 16th St and heard 326’s horn blowing at Waverly. Two trains missed. :evil: :lol:

Thanks for the update on the empty. I may actually catch that one. :D
