Q327-25 @ 11:03 doing a train mark up with the Dispatcher at 11:03am while he's in Grand Rapids. He'll be picking up cars from Holland. Q327's side of the conversation was broken up & couldn't hear engine or car details. He has CSXT engines #5396 + #148.

Looks like a loaded coal train w CSX 802/CSX #### ran the CN Flint sub yesterday to DTE in St. Clair.

Hi, the last word I had seen was Q327 was reported by the DD at mp 19.1 around 12:19pm & he had cars to pick up from Waverly/Holland & hasn't proceeded west from there yet. Q326 should be running today, they've been running a little later than usual.

You can view those trains on the Bangor, Michigan live cam & trains are stored for 12 hours after they have passed by the cam to view on rewind if you didn't catch them when they had actually passed by:
