Got some chatter for m327 contacting Rouge tower. They were asking about an EOT on the train. Rouge. Told him that they already have the EOT in place for them. Also just heard a horn sounded from the yard.

Currently no job briefing for M327. Sitting near the yard at the Mobile gas station and no train movement. I do see some cars lined up just before the little building in the middle of the yard.

That is about as much information I can give regarding M327.

Amtrak P371 Westward in Grandville approximately 6:18am. IDTX engine #4616 & 4 cars (2 Venture Coaches + Venture Business + Horizon Cafe).

Amtrak P371-31 Clear 17 at 6:34am. This is just before the DD. They have a P42 locomotive.

I have no information on M327. Don't think they have gone through. I think they're trying to get a hold of RN dispatcher.

CSX M327-30 Calling medium clear Grandville at 8:20am.

M327-30 should be leaving now. PTC help desk was able to get them up and running. Took a couple reboots from what I heard on the scanner.

M327-30 is stopped at Ivanrest MP CG4.7. Don't know who is listening to the scanner but they're stopped do to an error with PTC. They were moving at about 7 mph when it threw a com fault. It put them in brake suppression. Right now PTC is tempting to remote into the locomotive system. Might be a bi...

Y290 is the second shift switcher at the east end. Normally does not leave the yard so you probably wouldn't hear them on the road channel. Any X90 series yard job is a remote control job. Remote control jobs operating in yard limits have zones consisting of certain tracks or leads. These zones exi...

L302 I think said restricting at Plaster Creek. Rouge Tower said they will have him zig zag and clear for 6 I think. Call Y290 for permission to come in their zone? I think that's what was said. Using terminology I never heard of. Don't know who Y290 is. I feel like I've never heard that train number.

L302 Clear Madison at 9:02 pm.

I'm trackside tonight. I'm on Buchanan just between Pleasant St signal and Hall Rd.

L302 called approach at Pleasant at 9:04pm. Engines #270 and #6. I never seen a single digit locomotive.

wonder if we will have a late night Grand Elk?

M327 is Departing. Conductor on point and air flow ready to go. Was given signal indication by RN dispatcher a few minutes ago.

Any news on L302?

Wondering if I should make a small drive to chase him.

L302-15 @ 19:17 copied his EC1 at mp CH81.7 for Grand Ledge/Lake Odessa & is presently working in Lansing. CSX engines #5460 + #5447 is his power.

Thank you Tom, much appreciated
