5:44 PM - CSX L302 went through the Plymouth Diamond with 5332 and 5283 leading. Sounded like they have work for Lansing.
By Howell at 18:53 with 101 cars. Regarding the post by recent new poster "Delightful Trains" of L303 passing Howell at 16:26 this afternoon, I believe I now know who you are!
A friend of mine claims he’s hearing what he thinks is an Eastbound G076 on the Plymouth Sub just now around Trowbridge. Can anyone confirm that one running today?

No grain trains running today.
The post earlier about an eastbound at Howell was not a CSX train either, possibly the GLC ran a train south to the AA interchange. U305 was just departing Lansing at that time and L303 was right behind them...
