D70628 had 200 cars even out of Lansing this afternoon with 15,000 tons of train. By Howell at 18:57 with 751+595+3329 all on the head end. The first 54 were the cars D708 picked up at Howell yesterday. D708 in the pass here currently and will be leaving 53 cars for GLC and picking up the 28 cars they left behind yesterday. Have no idea what the status is of the 71 cars they left in the siding in Brighton on Monday for GLC.
