They ended up swapping power before leaving, now leading with BNSF 8848 & 9850. Running as E949-25.

Q32726 WB at Okemos Station (CH 81.2) 05:45pm. The defect detector at CH 79.9 appears to be offline, so I have no other information on it.

Z151 is in the yard now.
While 151 was coming down the old Baldwin Sub, Q334 headed east with CSXT 8622 & 8809 for power and a train consisting of 1 tankcar. Met Q327 (CSXT 8536 & 8141) at Seymour. 327 then followed Z151 into the yard.
