As of 20:10

M396 going 5 MPH thru Cory…
X302 following slowly on the single track
A450 holding at Walton
A491 waiting patiently at Potterville

L514 stopped at E Durand for a WB
EB A492 pulling out of Bristol Yard onto M2
WB at Belsay on M1

Copypasta from M396/RTC desk 8:
M396 called dispatch asking if anything was ahead of him and confirmed no as for whatever reason lined to Trowbridge at best, had a wrongful Restricting signal at 212.8. He was told to keep going

Dispatcher couldn't understand why the signal would be that

Limited approach at Mill

RTC not happy. His Flint sub is "destroyed" now has he put it

So yeah. Big mess on Flint sub indeed

M396 east clear mp223 at 20:31. UP #8712, CN #3930.

M302 and A450 behind him all lined to single track. Not sure yet if both will be taking M1 for P364 but I'd think so. M396 I think is taking M1 at Shaftsburg

Upon leaving mp223 for home, rode by EB signals to see M1 give off an advanced clear-to-stop. This was for M394 which by now is nearing stop signal in Okemos.

P364 had a restricting signal as well at 212.8 but maybe that time due to trains ahead of it. Cleared HBD 219.5 at 21:18 at 43mph.

M397 is still in Toronto but has the power from Friday’s M394: CN 8931/CSX 994/BNSF 732 f/r/f

The first WB out of Mac Yard, M383 for Sarnia had engine issues and held up any other WBs behind it, including M397.

Winnipeg. It had a bunch of loaded lumber from BC. Must have gone the long way around the lakes.

We’ve seen M324’s before. Winnipeg, MB to Kirk Yard, rerouted via Toronto. Last ones were due to a derailment or track work in Wisconsin but idk the reason for this one.
