CSX has been having a meltdown on the Detroit Sub.. A 250 car long Q507-03 has been stopped for over 3 hours in Dearborn. A 195 car long Q506-02 was stopped for 2 hours in Livonia, moved a bit east to Dearborn, then stopped again. Q151-03 is all built and has a crew, but has no route and has been sitting for two hours. Q150-03 is stopped at Carleton, probably to receive further instructions.. Some days Q150 has been taking the Lincoln Secondary, even though last time I checked, Q150 and Q151 were both involved with Oak Yard.
Q276-03 has still not left Rougemere, and Q231-03 has still not left Rougemere.

UPDATE provided from Jonathan Quinley - Q506 02 dead on hill...11000 feet..Q507 has reduced train size 4 times and still can't get air built...recrew called...original crew dies at 1615...Q231-03 went to via secondary as did Q150-03...Q151-03 stopped at MI Ave Connection due to Q507 in the way..Q507 was originally 15000 ft...Q276 dies at 1800 so they wont get far..

Vanden Bosch Feed in Zeeland now has its first cars in several months if I'm not mistaken - a pair of former CNW green covered hoppers rebadged with new reporting marks. Also, one centerbeam on the Zeeland Lumber spur.

Pretty good chance considering they run every week day.
