I caught them from the US-31 overpass at Waverly doubling their train at 10AM. Looks like sand business is GOOD!

Someone was asking if HESR 2025 has been renumbered as MMRR 2025. I didn't see the sides to know if it has new reporting marks, but the nose logo is still definitely HESR.

Are they back to running to Holland M-W-F? Or just roughly three days per week whatever those days work out to be?

NB D737 just cleared 9 Mile Rd. Couldn't make out the engine #. Looks like it is taking the siding at Novi to await a southbound, guessing D736.

S38516 from Plymouth, by Howell at 04:08 with 98 cars. CSX 759+5255 leading. The first Q328, Q32817 by Howell at 07:07 with 178 cars. Looked no different than any Q384 train. CSX 514+906 on the head end. Don't think Detroit is going to be to happy with 178 cars coming at them unless A LOT are being set off at Plymouth for a Q385 out of Detroit pick up.
