Q326-25 @ 13:21 eastward stopped at the Holland Depot mp CG25.3 with CSXT engines #157 + #69 & 100 cars. He has 11 cars to set off & his train has E. 8th Street, Lincoln Ave & also looks like 9th Street may be blocked by his train.
It appears D702 ahead of him had gone into emergency causing Q326 to stop short of where he had intended to be. Q326 copied an EC1 at 13:33 not to exceed Restricting Speed between mp CG23.1 & CG24.4
Q326-25 @ 13:46 on the move eastward with his entire train clear of the Holland Depot.

As of 15:45 they weren't lined thru WE Brighton (nothing was), though that may change.
Their last trip to South Lyon was on the 23rd of April.

They just finished working Webberville. It sounds like this is their only stop. As for where they're running around, I have no idea.

Synopsis (now that I'm in a position to text instead of using Google Voice): As of 1609 EDT, D708-25 is working RheTech. He currently has a clear signal at Fowlerville and has been said over the scanner to do their run around move at Brighton. Train is still heading east.

Posting this for the people that asked about D708s whereabouts

Probably going to runaround in Brighton then pick up the GLC interchange on their way back west, I would guess.
