Nice, thanks for sharing! I just watched it and never knew of Hudsonville siding, considering I live near Grand Rapids Terminal.

Those might be truck frames, I commonly mistake those for welded rail trains, especially when I railfan the Romulus area.

They don’t use it much given that it’s a little short for a siding.

L303 east is currently stopped at the west end of Fox with Y106 on the main. Not sure what’s happening or why. 303 is blocking East Paris, 36th and 32nd.

1523 update: Y106 has CSX 2044 and 8465 nose to nose. L303 is still stopped east of the West End of Fox about right on top of the Corvac switch.

Might have been B523 (former K596), the empty slab and coil train for AK Steel.

Apparently L303 got a knuckle between Shaffer and Fox. They are on the move again, nearing Lansing.

Edit: L302 is setting off some power in Grand Ledge siding for the grain train at ADM. Sighting by KC8KBK but he’s driving so I posted.
