Y106 east near Seymour, heading to Fox in Grand Rapids, turning there today, no run to Alto. 10:22am.
D70024 west at Wells with 3 cars, main to the siding, so perhaps there's a coal train parked there. Inspector stopped on the main just east of Fox due to an obstruction on the tracks - 10:30am.
As of 10:40am, dispatcher said there's some westbound at Fowlerville headed towards grand rapids, unknown what it is.

CN ATCS shoes a westbound CSX has the clear to cross the Flint Sub in Trowbridge on the Plymouth Sub. The train isn't on the monitor yet so I'm not sure where it is.

W52423, CSX 21+3317, what used to be either K901 or K930 stone train depending on where it goes. First train by Howell in nearly two weeks. D-jobs don't count. We actually had an obstruction on the tracks here today as well. It was a train. Must have been day dreaming, but thought the dispatcher referred to herself as the "AX" dispatcher. Perhaps new letters for this now little used sub, soon to become a short line.

Y106 west at Seymour and w524 west at fox at 13:22. There's a Tesla parked behind Rider's hobby store on 28th St, neat. Thanks Howell Yardmaster for the symbol.
W524 had a couple cars near the rear leaking rock out of the edge between the side and the bottom.

No D906 was mentioned today, probably not one running today.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Looks like D708 cleared Plymouth diamond at about 18:30. Saw the tail end of it entering East Yard a few minutes ago.

D708 has not gone east of Howell yet as of 20:20. They will die at East Yard Plymouth. No re-crew planned for AT LEAST 24 hours. Repeat of last Friday when a D906 GRP crew grabbed the train late on Saturday, and then did no Ann Pere work going west.
