Thanks for the continued updates earlier. They usually park them at "MP 25" which is the double crossover just west of the diamonds, this is the other end of the siding at Beck Rd. The only reason "G076" goes onto the Saginaw Sub is to be parked at Lilley Rd. or the opposite end of that siding. You are correct, they it will receive a new crew and a new symbol before continuing south. If anyone knows what the return symbol (if there is one) for G828 is, I would love to know.

Mr Adam [messmann] you are correct approaching howell as of 122am...Clear we howell as of 131am

Were either of you able to confirm the consist? I presume that's what you meant by "correct" Andrew? Thanks in advance.
