280 with a CSX locomotive and one covered hopper about half-way into the train passed MP 22.5 on the Holly at 11:15 am. I am guessing on the train number but it pretty much describes the train.

11:35 - R934 with CN 5407 is taking the three cars with six transformers that Q116 set off in Snow Yard yesterday down the Delta Siding to the Lansing BWL Delta TWP power plant. First trip down the siding there since the last coal empties were pulled. They will come back light to Snow Yard after dropping those cars and continue with their work.

Early AM in Durand today:

01:15 - WB R944 with CN 2657/CN 8914 takes the High Wye and heads south on the Holly.
01:35 - WB A491 with UP 5943 solo on M1 thru Durand
01:44 - R944 shoves into Durand yard from the Holly Sub
02:16 - EB R944 departs Durand with a small pickup and heads back to Flint - CN 2657/CN 8914
