Reading on Facebook that Q-015 was waiting at Wellsboro and the rear end of the train was about a half-car length west of Range Road and the gates were still down there. Someone drove around the gates from the north and was nailed by Q-004. This is near Kingsford Heights on the Garrett Sub.

I know the feeling! Friday night, since I didn't have to work Saturday, I felt like seeing Z151 come into town. And by that I mean chase it through Grant, Kent City, Sparta and so forth. Well on my up on M-37, it was around 7:30ish going through Sparta so I thought that since I didn't see it there that I would just keep working my way north. Didn't see or hear anything in KC or Grant so I went to Newaygo. I finally see, getting there around 8:00ish. I know I was pretty early, but I was excited. Since i saw it sitting there i figured I'd just wait a while. But i ended up sitting where the old depot used to be for about 3 hours and they didn't move an inch. My thought is that if I'd gone to see it any other night, they would have made there way down to GR and get to Wyomjng after Amtrak but instead they just say in Newaygo till after dark.
