D700-28 @ 15:06 westward reported by DD mp CG44.2 with 90 axles & 1,276 ft. CSX engines #4016 + #6244 & 20 cars.

D700-28 @ 15:26:27 westward Bangor's Center St crossing mp CG60.35 (5 CH + 1 Gon + 4 Coils + 7 Tanks + 2 empty Bulkhead Flats + 1 Box car).

D706-28 update @ 15:40: at 14:35 he was eastward mp CH137 he had copied his EC1 to proceed to Ensel with CSX engines #47 + 5340. During his train mark up to the RN before that, D706's side of the conversation couldn't be hear, nor, was a DD 126.3 report heard. There is a lot of radio interference today & the DD126.3 report may have been wiped out by it, especially with that DD's reporting lasting only about 12 seconds. So, no idea how many cars he has. No mile posts call out are being heard & the CSX #47 has a lousy radio to boot.

Picked up a faint & broken DD radio call @ 15:46 that might have been D706 by the DD at mp CH104.3 He has set offs & pick ups at Lansing.

Hi BL2, will the CSX #552 + #5103 remain in Lansing or will D705 grab them & bring them to Grand Rapids tonight?

D700-28 @ 19:33:55 eastward Bangor's Division St crossing mp CG60.93 with CSX engines #6244 + #4016 & 18 cars (1 Box car + 2 empty Bulkhead flats + 7 Tanks + 4 Coils + 1 Hi Side Hopper + 2 CH + 1 Reefer). When he had gone westward, he had stopped his train in the Riverside area, took off the engines & moved that Bad Order car that had been tying up #1 Track & placed it into some spur or other siding in that area. Time didn't permit him to go to Sawyer after making that move.
