G706 Grand Ledge grain load had CSX 216 leading and 5352 trailing when going east by Howell at 03:52 this morning with 89 cars. 216 was power off of Q326 a couple days ago. Trailing unit 5352 was the leader, one of three units, that went west on the V70621 empty to Grand Ledge Sunday evening by Howell at 23:52. Either the trailing two units later went back to Plymouth power light, or they are currently still in GRP.

326 clear Grandville with an AC4400 leading a Tier 4 GE and a GP40 Slug Set.

Q508 turning north at Fostoria with a pair of Gevos. About half intermodal, half mixed freight. Long train. Probably 30-40 coil cars and gons on the end.

Looking at the wiki, I just now noticed that 150/151 and 131/132 are no longer listed. Were they abolished or something? If so, I can't recall coming across info on that, so I must have terrible memory or am really out of the loop.
