E800-28 @ 12:21 requesting camera shots (AEI) from the St Joseph Bridge Tender but didn't request anything else. Not sure if they actually stop & pick up AEI data from the Bridge Tender.

I know the empty coal trains have stopped before to pick up BNSF & NS paperwork that was faxed to the Bridge Tender, but, I don't know if they stop when just requesting "camera shots" (especially with this size of a train).

Something is headed thru Brighton now, my guess is D705. 12:44.

E800-28 @ 12:55 is stopped & now it appears he is having issues with his EOT & he's having the Bridge Tender trying to reset it. A couple of attempts have failed so far. Success at 12:58

Any confirmation of 705 ?

This is around the time it runs so I wouldn’t be surprised, I don’t have a location but that’s just my guess

13:19 CT: What looks to be a Q326 is eastbound at Ogden Dunes, MP 488 on the NS Chicago Line. He’s slow-rolling to CP 482, since that E800 has to come off the CSX still. CSX 5254 and 455? are your leaders.
