[SD80MAC]

17:03 - L302-06 west called an Approach Medium at EE Brighton, going into the siding.

L302 *should* be making a pickup at Howell, a big one if I’m hearing correctly.

302 and 303 don’t work Howell. I don’t know who’s feeding you info, but you should probably keep quiet.

I thought I heard someone was going to work Howell earlier on the Detroit area railroads broadcastify frequency, so I assumed it was 302, we all make mistakes.
