What are "5 shorts"?
"Shorts" are cars that were picked up at various industry's prior to leaving Fowlerville when heading east.

D708 was working Fowlerville as of 3:03 PM with 8526/4002.
Ok maybe they didn't get today off - lined east at EE Brighton as of 16:57.
Running around as of 17:53, Walnut St. crossing is still down/malfunctioning.
D708 westbound calling clear for CH 49 at 17:59.
Yah. I’m surprised too. I think if they weren’t behind they would’ve had it off.

D706 heading slowly east by CH 146 at Trip Optimizer speed at 13:58. I honestly wonder how many hours the TO wastes.
