P371 just passed Q326 at Riverside. Q326 had two motors, both GEVOs looked like, and about 80 mixed. Both trains looked good, markers in place.

There was also half a coal train without any power at Wells, and a total of 128 intermodal wells still in storage at Gross, with most of the crossings now full of dirt in the flangeways...gotta be getting towards 3 years of those being there, no?

P371 is showing a service disruption this morning. Anybody know why? Track problem or Amtrak problem? I have scanner recordings from overnight and the answer may be there, but I'm curious and it will be a while before I can listen.

Lots of power outages in grand rapids; large storm came through around 3am this morning. That'd be my guess.

Dispatcher was suggesting to an N800 crew that there were several trees down in the Hudsonville/Grandville area from straight line winds last night.

Speaking of, as of 0848hrs, N800 is eastbound near Bangor. A D801 helper set is presently southbound at Riley Road in Holland to meet at Wells and give them a shove.
