Is the 3343 a new acquisition for Marquette Rail?

L303-22 dropped off CSX #4082 SD40-3 off at Lansing after spinning the entire power around at Grand Rapids Wye.

I counted 68 cars. On the conductors' side was an excellent rendition of Tom from Tom and Jerry.
Regarding the gondolas yesterday, I too had noticed some non-ZVBX reporting marks mixed in with the new ones. I had wondered why the blocks seemed to be separated by random reporting marks.
18:37 - Green Oak reported 438 axles, the math suggests a third 6-axle unit.

This was my mistake, I should have specified that Green Oak detector was reporting for L302. Once I saw 3343 I figured I should make a new post rather than update the post with the detector report.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2024
I do not.
Also, last night’s U302 was a rerouted U313/314. Brought to GR to be switched out, then the traffic will go back east on L303.

Roughly half the train for GR, the rest for Lansing and points east. Easy switching.
