Regarding below, Q32929 departed Fowlerville with red block at 10:30 with 527, (the NCSTL sticker unit) and 129 in YN2 with 68 cars and a long string of tanks. Q32829 now at the west end of Brighton at 10:35 with red blocks with CSX 5465+5276 and 107 cars. 40 cars of stone empties on the rear. Looks like 328 will have clear blocks before they leave Brighton.

Q32829 arrived in Howell at 08:40 with red blocks and like at Fowlerville, had to take the power off the switch. In Howell, to get into the siding, Q32929 coming west from Brighton with red blocks arrived at Ann Pere at 09:10 and now flagging the diamond.

N80028 coal load at wells, going up Saugatuck hill at noon. D80128 pushing. BNSF 6357 and BNSF 8485 trailing.
1:17pm update: Q326 east at Bangor with CSXT 5385 and CSXT 5232 leading 91 cars. D80128 went back down the hill after shoving n800, and will give q326 a shove.

CSXT 11 and CSXT 861 are on the train at Webberville and still loading. This empty came as V76425. CSXT 494 and CSXT 346 was on the V70620 empty that went to Grand Ledge on the 24th. Coming east as a G01329 load at noon today with 494+346, train will probably become G706 at Plymouth.

1. Police don’t enforce railroad speed limits. Management does

2. PTC won’t let you (assuming it isn’t cut out)

3. The locomotives may automatically snitch on you if you do. Or else, the data is on the recorder.

19:12 EDT E800 CLEAR ON A PAIR AT WELLS. Q327-29 CLEAR AT MP30.0 SOUNDS LIKE 327 HAD AN ENGINE ISSUE THAT MADE THEM TIE UP 8TH AVE. RN WAS GOING TO HAVE THEM SWAP POWER WITH THE PUSHERS AT WELLS BUT ITS BEEN DECIDED THAT THEY WILL JUST GO WITH WHAT THEY HAVE AND MAKE RIVERSIDE FOR P370.

19:37 EDT D801/N800 WAS INSTRUCTED BY THE RN TO PUT TRAIN IN SIDING AT WELLS, TIE IT DOWN IN ONE PIECE AND GO HOME. Q327 HAS AN APPROACH AT FENNVILLE. WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE COAL TRAIN GETS IN THE SIDING.
