Supposedly, my friend just said they ran to SL, at this point you'd know better than any of us lol.

My guess would be that they have already left.

D70802 departed Howell for Lansing at 5:48pm with 57 cars including picking up a slew of cars on the west end of D70601's Sunday night setoff (which still sits there) that was obvious to me did not belong to GLC to start with. The Reefer and a bunch of Lumber loads looked like something for Lowes. Just prior to D708 crossing Latson Road and MP 50.8 going west, a car shot across the tracks with the gates down in front of them, and the gate hit the car so hard it blew out the front windshield of the car, but wasn't even close to D708..

He won’t be blowing through a crossing like that again.

EE Brighton shows a Y/R, WE Brighton shows R/R as of 10 minutes ago. It's normal for EE to show yellow for a few seconds after something is lined, but it was that way even after 705 went thru Plymouth.

P37002 lined onto GR Sub at CP482 4631 leading?

Same thing happened in SL a few weeks ago for D706

D700-02 @ 8:44pm copied his EC1 to proceed westward from Holland with CSXT engines #2742 + #6244 & 4 cars. He has work at Hartford mp CG68.7, Coloma mp CG75.8, & Sawyer CG105.6

D705-02 west thru WE Fowlerville at 21:05.
Fowlerville DD reports no defects, 676 axles and 9,693' working out to the same six-axle locomotives and 166 cars.

From Fowlerville I could hear them talking to dispatch, if I understood correctly, setout is on tracks 1 and 2, pickup is on tracks 3 and 5 at Lansing Ensel.
Wish I could hear that from my house
