Q326-10 is currently (11:33 am) around Paw Paw Ave with nearly 10,000 ft. of train. Sounds like CSXT 5356 leading.
Not sure why the time is wrong in the post.

WB autorack + intermodal train just turned south at Plymouth. CSX 3318 + 18 autoracks + 39 doubles + 8 single stacks. No scanner with me.
At 17:00 saw a NB local turn east. Missed the engine #, had 3 covered hoppers, 3 empty centerbeams, and one box.
Also saw what looked like a 384 or 385 in the siding at MP 25 just west of the diamond. No engines at the east end.
