Earlier in the morning, at 0842 hrs, D700 went west thru Bangor with an 81xx series SD40-2, 4 empty high-side gons for Hartford, 5 NS coil cars for Sawyer, and a single lumber load, probably for Standale Lumber in Grandville on their return trip later today.

Overnight at Howell, Q38514 went west at 23:20 with CSX 3184-5389, both units facing forward and 58 cars. They met Q38416 at Williamston who was by Howell at 00:40 with CSX 5449+790+5270 with 151 cars.

That was probably CSX 8181 on D700 this morning as 8181 never came back east that was on the Grand Ledge grain empty several days ago.

Q327 west at Vine at 20:53. 2 or 3 engines up front. Vine eastbound already showing a clear (meaning SJ Bridge is lined and locked) for P370 so the 2 are probably meeting at Livingston.
