Per the scanner, sounds like an 800 series coal drag (didn't get whether it was E or N) has cleared MP 108.

Did 802/326 make it to GR yet?

**Edit it was N800

Hi MQT, it appears as of 7:27pm D802/Q326 is still at Wells prepping for departure. Also, D802 was heard saying when he's done dropping off Q326 he's to go to Riverside to be DP power, must be in reference to the N800 train you had heard by MP 108.
Update: D802/Q326 on the move at the east end of Wells at 7:32pm

Think they will make it out before that Ballast train?

D802/Q326 on the move at the east end of Wells at 7:32pm Not sure what they're doing with that ballast train. D802 is to drop off Q326 (at Holland or G.R. ?) and then go to Riverside to be DP power. I'm guessing for that N800 train you had heard by mp 108.
D802/Q326 is going to set off cars in Holland, 17 I think was mentioned earlier. Reported from Saugatuck at 7:57pm

[Saturnalia]

Q326 worked Holland. Over DD19.1 at Zeeland at 20:56.

[MQT1223]

There is a Red over Clear over Red at CP Grandville for whatever EB gets here first...

Between 326, the Ballast Train and Amtrak it could be anybody’s game.

**Looks like 326 will be here first

D802/Q326 @ 8:57pm was reported by the DD at mp 19.1 with 320 axles & 4,196 feet long. CSX #141 + #442 leading & not sure if he kept his DP engines #3266 + #3209 on his train after leaving Holland. If he has all 4 engines he has 74 cars (he had 109 cars originally) & set off a lot more cars than the 17 that was heard in the plans. If he has only the 2 leading engines he would have 77 cars.

Amtrak P370-07 @ 9:06pm was reported by the DD at mp CG91.9 with the #4606.

Ahh ok. I thought 126 whatever was referring to the GR Sub.

[MQT1223]

802 clear Grandville. Signal has already lined 370 through.
