Anybody by chance happen to catch L303-08 departing Grand Rapids to Lansing today? Asking cause roughly around 23:35 +/-, overheard CSX dispatch talk to L304 and mentioned them with engine #8315 which I know came into GR from M326 today. Very confused as it wasn't mentioned in Andy's L303-08 reports, and with it being a 6-axle, wouldn't be confused as freight, so I don't quite know how it got to Lansing or if there's something I'm missing.
