GLC 382 and GLC 396 headed east out of downtown Owosso with 2 covered hoppers at 1:56pm. Paced them for about a mile, they stopped to switch their yard east of town.

Cool. they went to both Petoskey and TC? I didn't know they did both in one run or do they use two crews?

Anybody seen 329 lately? Have not seen it in Howell since mid summer. Either just missing it or its down with mechanical issues.
