Marquette Rail Santa Train is in the siding near I-96. Looks like MQT 2005 (an ex UP unit) on the point, with a boxcar with a Christmas Tree and the sweet MQT caboose. Looks good with all the christmas lights guys
Can't wait for tomorrow!

Also, Q334 was Eastbound over 28th Street at 8:35. She had 2 GEs for power (one YN2 & one YN3, and the trailing unit was a GEVO!!!). If I counted right, they had 127 cars, around 35 of those loads. All trains I saw today had that humm from the recent railgrinding. Q335 had 126 cars, I'm assuming N956 had 130, and Q334 had 127, so I saw 383 cars, and 8 6-axle locos, for around 6 miles of train.

Did N956 end up following Q334?

Not sure yet. I haven't heard 334 yet but I may have missed them. I think I may have just heard Q334 call the west end of Lake Odessa. Not quite in my scanner range yet it and it was pretty weak. I'll post when I hear them call Woodbury.
