9/30 - 21:44 - a slow-moving WB C711 with the three BNSF units from the earlier C712 was by the 205 cam with 750 axles. 3 engines (18) and 183 cars. 130 were the empty LBWL coal hoppers and then there was 53 cars picked up at Cory Yard so L501 did not have to stop. This included auto racks and the normal Lansing customer cars and the JAIL set-offs, including the high and wide flat car from Reid Machinery.

An E251 cleared WB about ten minutes before C711 and the C711 took eight minutes to clear the cam.

I saw them working on M1 at Hope yesterday or the day before. I think they have been working on some switches and things in that area.
