UP 5526, CP 9376. West at Bangor at 20:27. Different power than from 326, not sure where is appeared from.

UP 5526 and CP 9376 brought K86207 into Grand Rapids this morning. Looks like it terminated in Grand Rapids but is bound for Webberville. K86208 says it departed Grand Rapids tonight at 8pm and arrived Grand Rapids 9pm, unknown.

16:20 EDT BY THE CAM AT BANGOR. GOING TO EE GRAND JUNCTION TO LET E800 POWER INTO THE SIDING AS Q326 WILL NEED A SHOVE UP THE HILL. THE CREW ALSO REMINDED RN THAT THEY ARE SHORT ON TIME.

[justin_gram]

As Steven said, Q326 is stopped at Grand Junction, empties are around Saugatuck. D802 light power is around Hudsonville headed west to push 326 up the hill, will most likely stick with them all the way into GR. 326 crew is out of time at 20:00.

E800 west at Pullman at 17:41. BNSF 8767, BNSF 5625.

Q132 would be a CSX Intermodal bound for Detroit

Wabash1070, would this train, Q132, "Terminate" at Oak Yard, Detroit? Also, does the "Power" from it usually go to Rougemere Yard in Dearborn? How long typically do the engines stay around before leaving on another train? My goal is to see UP "Olympic Torch" SD70M #2001!!!!
Oak Yard is this one as you probably know: http://www.michiganrailroads.com/statio ... detroit-mi

[justin_gram]

Sounds like an eastbound at Vine at 06:34. 528 axles, 6959 feet at 91.9 DD.

[CR900945]

CSX intermodals for Detroit go the facility at the south side of the former Livernois Yard off Dix Avenue. Oak Yard on the other hand is split between CSX local carload traffic and CP intermodal. CP leases part of Oak Yard for its small container business. No CSX intermodal is handled there. CSX power from Detroit intermodal possibly would go to Rouge Yard for servicing. Sounds like your Q132 came up the Lincoln Secondary from Carleton.
