Regarding this mornings D908, D708 derailed in B track at Ashei-Kasei yesterday which killed their day. A recrew for D708, plus D707s crew, plus, the track department all met in Fowlerville after midnight. D707 took 708s lead unit, 4032 back to Lansing so they could switch Grand Ledge, D908 assisted the track depart with trailing unit 4229, finished switching Ashei-Kasei, came east to switch Thai-Summit, and then returned back to Lansing where the fuel truck is waiting to refuel both units.
