11:30, sounds like Y121 is working Zealand. They had one to pickup at Z Lumber. Today would be a miserable day for riding a caboose platform for the shove move….the wind is intense out there!

D700-06 @ 14:57 eastward reported by the DD mp CG19.1 with 66 axles (+2 error) & 818 feet long. CSX engine #6546 & 16 cars. He’s headed back to Grand Rapids. Assuming the axle count error, hopefully he'll tell Rouge how many cars he has. Car count doesn't work out properly for 66 axles.

16 cars it is from D700's call to Rouge.

D708-06 sounds like they're switching an industry between Fowlerville and Howell. 18:00.

D708-06 slowly passed me at Howell at 18:23 after blocking downtown for ten minutes.
They got permission west past the WAS at Ann Pere at 18:35, headed into the siding presumably to pick up GLC set offs.

Last I heard, after setting off cars at Ogihara, D708-06, who did not work on Friday, took its 87 car train to Ann Pere, and was to leave 66 cars parked on the main for GLC, pick up the 39 cars GLC sat off on Friday in the pass, and take the train to Brighton to run around it.
