Per Bangor Viewer Michiganrailfan_13 @ 10:40 stated in Bangor Chat, "Uncle said at the moment 1 UP engine is moving the Herzog cars around to get ready for a supposed departure for tomorrow. He said there is an NS, 2 UP’s and a CN near the Herzog cars tho so expect those to be possible power for W080. I wonder if they’ll struggle with the Saugatuck Hill and need the 2 CSX helpers. One if the conductors that he knows said they might add a 5th engine to W080 depending on how heavy it is

Currently at Webberville at 10:55 picking up 4584 + 286, power from the G804-26 grain empty on the 29th. If anybody sees 4584, take a photo and post it. This is one of the latest 4500 series rebuilds from Huntington, that as far as I know has not made the photo sites yet, not that it it's not there now.
