Heard some toots through Grandville when I woke up around 0700. Didn't have the scanner on though. Sounded like a gevo horn.

I wouldn't be shocked if that one is due for maintenance is they're just going to pull it...when was the last time they got a car? I can't remember any since I started watching this stuff closely in 2012

P370-29 JUST UPGRADED FROM AN APPROACH TO APPROACH LIMITED INDICATION AT VINE AT 19:33 EST. 20 AXLES, 363 FEET AT 91.9 DD. AMTK 120 LEADING. APPROACH HILLTOP THEN UPGRADED TO APPROACH SLOW INDICATION.

THE SIGNAL AT SJ BRIDGE MUST BE INDICATING A MEDIUM APPROACH SINCE IT ONLY HAS TWO HEADS AND HILLTOP IS SHOWING APPROACH SLOW. THEY PROBABLY WILL HAVE AN UPGRADED SIGNAL FROM THAT BY TIME THEY CALL IT.

MEDIUM CLEAR INDICATION AT BENTON HARLEM AT 19:44 EST.

ALSO TODAY I WENT TO BENTON H AND THOES GONDOLAS ARE NO LONGER SITTING IN TRACK #3 (SIDE TRK).
