[SteveHiuzenga]

D700 just cleared Zeeland, I would assume he'll meet 371 in Hudsonville since I don't think he can make it all the way to GR

Only reason i know is thanks to gram being in bridgman. Livingston is kinda my home away from home.
Still haven't seen the BNSF GP's move yet, although it seems like 3829 has everything down.

Not only that, but Q196 has over 8,000 feet of train today, but does have 26 empties to go along with his 17 loads.

Yet another 90 grain empty for Grand Ledge has tied its train down at Trowbridge because yesterday's empty is not loaded yet, Todays train, G87901 had CSX 286 for power.

Q32706 CSX 7616 5382 and 48 cars (most for Ensel again) met Q33406 CSX 7497 28 and 71 cars at Howell @ 12:45. Q33506 has CSX 5326 5254 4522 2680 but with only 78 cars considering four units. By Howell @ 14:25.
