Tier4GEVO, I love these long reports. They really give a good snapshot for how the CSX lines are currently functioning in SE Michigan. You must be very patient!
For this one:
12:05 PM
NB to WB CSX Q506-30
CSXT CW40-9 #9015
CP ES44AC #8863
132 cars long.
Where would a WB 132-car train be going? I though no trains were running between Grand Rapids and Flint right now?

Just a typo. Q506 goes NB to EB at Plymouth and runs to Detroit.
