Interesting. It has been a while since a train came south with total tankers. Q322 and Q321 are both planned for today so keep your eyes peeled for later.

Not sure of exact location, but loaded coal train should be going through Holland somewhere. Last I saw it was crossing M-40 around 12:20pm going 30mph

4 engines just came north through Novi as light power. Maybe locomotives to assist Q321-23 if it took a crap near a grade? Area gets steep in the Grand Blanc area.

Yessir. I didn't hear the scanner but I'll tell you what, I'll manually count the cars later on and then give you a very close number to what its car count and axle count is.

P370-23 is currently departing St. Joseph. Sounds like AMTK 90229 leading.
