V-75822 grain empty went to Grand Ledge overnight. CSX 3205+815 on the head end with 90 all CSX cars. 2nd grain train in a row with all CSX cars. By Howell at 01:00 and had the train spotted by 04:30. Not sure if this was the same empty that sat in the north side pass at Plymouth for two days and redirected to Grand Ledge or another one. The one at Plymouth was supposed to go to Webberville again.

Not train related but today is the 56th wedding anniversary of my bride and I. Not only that has we were high school sweethearts as well meeting each other when she was only 13, and just as sweet now as she was then.

Sounds like N800-27 will go to Grand Junction and cut crossings, then wait on a cab.
