While being shuttled from the car dealership to downtown Plymouth, saw that a long freight is stopped and blocking Lilley Rd., Ann Arbor Trail, and Main St. Can't tell which train it is; maybe 322. Have my scanner on, but not hearing anything.

9:30 UPDATE: It is Q335. It sounds like D717 is going to push from the rear. Heard engine 5239 mentioned; not sure if that's on 717 or 335.

9:50 UPDATE: Q335-27 cleared, with CSX 5239 leading, 8579 pushing, about 110 cars. Plan was to push to South Lyon.

Q326 high ball on the air test out of Waverly.

P371 was through New Richmond at 0855.

Heads up for anyone who cares. The Southern Pacific unit is leading 326 out of Holland.

A few minutes ago heard what sounded like K372(?) headed west at Eckles in Livonia with CSX 7854 leading. Nothing since.

Per Trainwatcher on 11/20:
TrainWatcher wrote:That K372 incase anyone was wondering were mty's, and came from AK Steel/Severstal in Detroit this afternoon. Wonder why the new symbol as they were running as K340/K339's. Also that symbol is running backwards to the normal timetable...

Maybe K372 is waiting for traffic to clear before they can proceed, Q277, V752, D716
