32725 had CSX 5410+7902 with 87 cars by Howell 09:10. Except for the first two, the next 43 were all tank cars. Q32825 made good time getting into Detroit this morning. By Howell at 06:22 with 82 cars. CSX 82+947 leading.

UP 8432 that Wabash1070 reported going through Williamston before midnight last night was light power going to Webberville to pick up a grain load. UP 8432 was joining up with CSX 3103 left behind when Q328 took their other east facing unit to Detroit on Wednesday. G010 crew took the train to Sheldon Road Plymouth when built, to become G94425 when recrewed. By Howell at 05:22.

E801 is currently going through St. Joseph.
I believe P377/378 has chargers on each end of the train.
