They were flagging some intersections and even had road flares on Holbrook.

Q328 & Q329 had a perfect meet in Howell this morning at 06:44. 32810 went east by the house at 06:35 with CSXT 5295+971 and 61 cars, 32910 went west at 06:50 with CSXT 284 single unit but only 9 cars. No wonder 329 was early today.

Train from Grand Ledge, traveling as G01009 with the crew who put it together, but should become G919 somewhere down the line. By Howell at 10:02.

Supposedly there's a weed spraying train coming west out of Detroit for Grand Rapids at some point today.

Q32910 was west at Shaffer in Grand Rapids at 11am with the CSXT 284 as Bob mentioned, but with 24 cars after the Lansing pickup.

I believe its run by a certain Mr. Frost Inc. Mr. Frost takes real good care of weeds and vegetation this time of year....then again...its not unlike CSX to run a weed train this time of year....sorta like that tie gang in December a few years back. Get out the switch cleaner jet to THAW OUT the right of way....before they start working.
