OHMYGURD.....CP POWER!!!! THEY ARE BUYING THE PLYMOUTH SUB! YIPPIEE!
That's not what that means at all, it's just foreign power, unless I guess this means whenever UP Power comes up here they buy the line for the day?
Hear that jet scream? That was the joke flying high over your head haha :lol: :twisted:

NB Q150 just turned east at Plymouth. CSX 575 + 941. Had 73 empty flats on the front, then some (mostly) double and single stacks. But then it paused, and I didn't feel like sticking around waiting to get a final car count.

P370-17 is currently going through Benton Harbor. Sounds like IDTX 4632 leading.
Q327 will go west when P370 is east of Benton Harbor.

83 cars on Q329 today, 49 on Q32817 earlier who was by Howell at 06:23 with CSX 5103+5278. Nice to see the rare GP15T (for these parts) on Q329. Can still visualize this unit in fresh Chessie paint when brand new in 1982.

OK what in the hell is it? Or maybe, what does it do? Gee, I miss being able to look things up but I'm not going to GR to look it up either.
