Q327-22 met Q326 at Livingston, and should be around Sawyer by now.

Q32923 by Howell at 08:08 with engines 79+450 and 60 cars, and then sat in Fowlerville for over 90 minutes waiting for Q32823 who had been having issues even before leaving GRP. Q329 finally departed Fowlerville at 10:10 but not until after reporting to Q328 they had a sliding wheel on a gondola 90 cars back. Crew currently checking it out but will be a long enough delay to kill the train before reaching Detroit. Q328 has 5310 leading.

Q32823 will have to set off the gondola in the Fowlerville pass at the east end causing more delay. Q32923 has a four car pick up at Lansing.

Q32823 has been dead on the main at Burkhart Rd. west of Howell since noon. Taxi picked the crew up. D708 will taxi to Burkhart Rd and take the train to the Brighton siding. This in turn probably means a turn around day at Fowlerville if they even get there.

[quote="LansingRailFan"Do you know if 328 is still hanging out in Howell?[/quote]

As of 16:10, Q328 still sits at Burkhart Road west of Howell. Apparently they found a crew for this train, as D708 has been working at Fowlerville since 15:30 and has to come to Howell after Q328 get moved.

Edit: Re-crew on board at 16:30 EOT has issues. Train pulling east at 16:52 so the conductor can check the train and rear end and will get a ride to Highlander Way. Train has 105 car 79+26 with CSX 5310+4 on the head end. D708 curently pulling east behind them from Fowlerville. Has all Ann Pere cars which will be set off in the Howell pass.
