825 and 3103 leading a grain train south at Lilly in Plymouth. A NB crossed lite on the inside track after leaving it’s train south of the crossing. Was on the wrong side of the tracks to see the lead engines number but the trailing engine was 59

Edit: lead engine of the NB was 3331 and it’s consist looked to be mostly covered hoppers as well

X24604 CSX 3030 single unit, by Howell westbound at 19:03. All auto racks. 49 cars I think as I forgot to write it down. Either a new train (heaven forbid) or a reroute from the Indiana mishap. That's no typo on the date the date of the train.
