Sounds like GLC may have had a minor derailment in Shepherd in the last hour or so. Seen it on the Shepherd Police Dept fb page.

Lead loco jumped the rails. Was minor.

GLC has an empty grain train in Osmer (and another on the way).

They also should have a loaded outbound off of HESR in Durand (Auburn).

Currently have one online split between the SOTW elevators in Shepherd and Rosebush.

Also FRA tren should be due in this week as well.
