Do you know if it's still there?

Q329 arriving at Wyoming with the CN power. All of those stone loads were either for GR or will go back to Lansing on Q328. Looked like the Lansing pick up was on the bottom.

Q32912 by Howell at 08:18 with CSX 950 single unit and 32 cars. No Lansing pick up planned so they should be into GRP long before noon. Earlier, Q32812 was the earliest yet by Howell at 04:06 and would have been even earlier if not for the still red blocks at Fowlerville. Over 100 cars. Should have been CSX 5321+280 on the head end.
