What I assume is an early 327 is switching at ivanrest. 3390 + 8780(SD60 but not the one that's supposedly on D700 today), + 67
EDIT: This is D700. Y106 will have 2 widecab SD60s on it today.
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

G010 called clear at Woodbury. Goes dead at 1100, this could get interesting as 707 is in fox and there was talk of holding 106 until G010 arrived in Wyoming

1022 clear west lakeo

G010 tying up on the main at elmdale, RN said she'll just make 106 use the run-around....... Maybe 106 will be bringing in G010 westbound?

At 10:40am in Wayne/Westland: Two southbounds holding north of Wayne Jct while some kind of work is going on. A number of workmen milling about the area, looking at the diamond. Don't have symbols, but the first train has a large cut of slab steel loads, the second is all intermodal, mostly double-stack. NS also had a train west of the diamond with an NS four-axle and a UP six-axle.

The G01030 train everyone has been guessing about IS the empty potash train from Webberville. 5465 leading. May have only one unit, but, 5465 has been in Michigan and paired with 4753 for the last two weeks.

Q384 went east by Howell at 04:25. 5401+5485+16, same power as yesterdays Q326.
