4th day in a row for a South Lyon meet for Q328 & Q329 this morning. Q32815 went east by Howell at 06:20, CSX 8350+3409 with only 19 cars. 3rd day in a row 328 had only around 20 cars when getting to Detroit. Q32914 went west at 07:40 with CSX 8613 and only 28 cars. Now that CSX has dumped all their SD 50-2 units but but a couple, leaving only the SD50-3 rebuilds left, (not all active) 8613 was one of them.

Saw Q329 approaching the east end of Fox as I left home, managed to beat them to East Paris despite the icy roads and got a picture. 8613 solo. At Seymour now!

8613 is one of the 14 SD50-3s, which are now joined by only 4 remaining SD50-2s in service on CSX, in case anybody was wondering why such a sight was so special
