Q328 heading out of town. Hearing them near Seymour in GR.
This is my life. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

If this is a problem get used to it.

Sounds like Q329 stalled west of Plymouth, power problems. Q328 is/was shoving them to South Lyon.

Q32923 moving at track speed by Howell at 09:36 with two UP EMD units, 4823+8492 with 59 cars. Despite that, and with only 7 cars to pick up at Lansing, current plan is to still bypass the work. Earlier, Q32823 went east at 06:48 with CSX 162+115 and 81 cars.
