CSX GRE MQT Train Location Update 03-20-08

[amtrak1007]

D700 by HUDSONVILLE 0011

[pudgy]

Q327 through Jenison 0055

Didn't listen to the radio from 1-2:10

Z151-19 arrive GR at 0232
GMTX 2648
GMTX 2676

Z151-19 Depart GR at 0341 with 65 cars. Too much train, too few horses. "Doubled" the hill, (actually, took 14 heavy loads off the headend first) and came back for the rest. Reassembled what they could take at Michigan Rail. Loaded lyme cars stuffed into the lead to MI Rail and the rest taken off to points north. Cars will be collected tomorrow night, hoping the train will be light enough to warrant the extra cars. GLLX locos (3001, 3002) O.o.S for the near future. Shades of D704 abound!! Get 'er done, Boys!

Night!!

Mechanical Dept truck at the GRE this morning. Doesn't look any inbound overnight. Can't see the AMTK engine number behind the building
