Seems to be the case for Grand Ledge, but Webberville takes a little longer iirc. Someone mentioned G077 had trouble spotting the train upon arrival, wouldn't surprise me if this delays things a little further.

3069 on M327 has a ditch light out on the engineer side.....and I wouldn't be surprised if he sets off the detector somewhere....there was a tank car near the end that was making a heck of noise and after it passed you could smell something burning.
