I know for awhile there, CSX was running the Chicago/Detroit intermodal block on Q326 and Q327. When did they stop doing that?

Dd@64.0 308 axles, 4700'. I couldn't understand what train it was on the radio. I'm guessing 328, just spotted him from the highway by the plastic place east of fowlerville. 0700

Update: clear m59 703, confirmed 328 via radio with 2 csx units.
