V-776. Crew on the K831 potash empty from Webberville has taken it to Fowlerville, using the K844 CEFX-CP power from yesterdays potash load for the GLC at Ann Pere, and is running the power around to the west end of the train, and then taxi to Trowbridge to get the V776 train and spot it at Webberville. Meanwhile, GLC is at Howell now picking up the Potash load off the Howell pass to take it north.

1615 EST WB TRAIN GOING THROUGH GRANDVILLE. NO IDEA WHAT TRAIN ID IS.
EDIT: BNSF 8773 LEADING. SOUNDS LIKE LIGHT POWER IS RETURNING TO WEST OLIVE.

Hey Trainwatcher, that was an actual coal train that BNSF 8773 and 9665 were pulling
out of Grandville. I don't know why it was stored at Wyoming yard but it left this afternoon.

Didn't catch the symbol but it was the loaded West Olive train that went to Wyoming a few days ago because Consumers didn't have room for it. 8773 has one of the angriest ACe horns I've ever heard, I could hear this thing for miles both coming and going. Nice to see the BN Executive unit as well - can't be too many of them left!

Here they are at 4:50pm at Zeeland. To round out the BNSF scene, that's a nice looking BNSF covered hopper far in the distance on the Van Den Boesch elevator spur. Also, two empty centerbeams on Zeeland Lumber's spur. Plasticore is empty.

Some days, it really does look like BNSF owns the GR Sub

They haven't routed those all through Chicago like everything else?
