D700-21 @ 9:47pm westward reported from mp CG28 with CSX engine #2692.
D700-21 @ 10:33pm westward Bangor mp CG60.7 with CSX engine #2692 & 4 cars (1 Hi-Top & 3 Coil).
D907-21 @ 11:06pm westward reported by the DD mp CH104.3 with 232 axles & 3,539 feet long. CSX engines #6428 + #3094 & 55 cars.
D907-21 @ 11:43pm westward reported by the DD mp CH126.3
Was kind of confusing for his radio calls, he was mostly calling out CSX 3094, yet, the dispatcher called him as having CSX 6428 & a couple of times the engineer called out as CSX 6428 but then when back to saying CSX 3094. Then later heard engineer calling out as CSX 428 (???)

D708 left lansing a while ago. had over 100 cars including 70ish for GLC.

Almost enough traffic for 328/329 eh?

That's a 708 every night and this week alone 707s on Sun, Mon, Tues and Wed and an extra 907 with over 100 cars.

Close. D708 had 97 cars for GLC. 6200 feet. Plan was to put 75-80 of them in the Howell pass and take the rest to Brighton to run around their train and put them in the transfer on the way back. At least no more cars for Ogihara today, which still leaves 53 gondolas currently there.

W009 FRA train, CN 5685 took a ten minute delay here and departed west at 17:00.
