10:50 hrs: Q329 by MA in Lansing with a pair of GEVOs and a lengthy train. All those MQT boxcars that go to PCA in manistee, those are empty going north and loaded leaving Manistee, right?

JAIL was NB at 10:20 and SB at 12:10 today. NB they had three boxcars to send back to the CN. SB lite units. They had a string of 5-6 coils SB yesterday which should come back for CSXT interchange tomorrow or Friday.

Was waiting for someone to start a May Sightings thread so I wouldn't have to. Q32901 went west by Howell at 09:53 with CSX 4825 (not a GEVO) and CSX 533 with 109 cars. Earlier, Q32801 went east at 07:38 with CSX 7789+5336 and 115 cars. Except for the last car, there were pretty close 50 stone empties on the rear end.

Not to mention that apparently there is an auto accident near the tracks. I'm assuming the train crossing was 120th avenue in Holland. Also not to mention school road crossing in Hudsonville failed to activate according to the scanner. As of 11:30pm EDT

Should be close to 50 more cars at Lansing for pick up from yesterdays D708. Earlier, Q32803 went east by Howell the earliest ever at 04:35 with CSX 3383+342+5382 with 125 cars including around 25 more stone empties on the rear end.

Just saw what I presume is D700 heading East at Glenlord Rd. in Stevensville. The usual short train...coil cars, high top gons, one boxcar. But the power was two BNSF units leading plus the SD40 that has been 700s power as of late. Strange. Did they suffer an engine failure and steal the DP power?
