I WATCHED THEM ON THE CAM. ARE THEIR CONSISTS MOSTLY STUFF THEY PICK UP IN HOLLAND AND JUST DRAG ABOUT WITH THEM? I KNOW SOME OF THE TANKS ARE COMING FROM HARTFORD AS DO THE OPEN HOPPERS. STEEL CARS ARE FROM SAWYER BUT WHERE ARE THE CH'S AND FLATS COMING FROM?

Hm, lite power south eh? Sounds like Q326 has been at Saugatuck for at least an hour. 520 axles and 7345' when they went by Wells earlier around 2pm. D700 has been at Wells for the last hour as well. Per dispatcher, Q326 stalled at 2:10pm. CSX called some pushers for q326. Let D700 just pull in at Wells. MMRR Z627 was switching Holland around 2:30pm. Think Q326 is now dying at Saugatuck and pushers will get the other half the train.

HOLY CAPS, BATMAN

They have been making a habit out of taking the Holland cars, I presume, to bypass any need to stop again on the way home and conduct another airtest. They had been using the CHs from Buzzi since they started running to Sawyer, I presume, to have enough axles so they can run full speed, and again so they don't have to re-test the Buzzi cars at Waverly, since they'd be off air for more than four hours.

Q327-13 is currently at Gray. Sounds like CREX 1507 leading, solo power, as their second unit, GECX 7897 is dead-in-tow.
