22:51 - B235-22 Northbound to Westbound Clear Plymouth. CP 8008 + 9783 (DPU).

23:22 - B235-22 Clear EE South Lyon. Crew van at WE South Lyon to pick up crew. G801 + B235 were taking up both tracks in Plymouth. Guessing they moved B235 to South Lyon to clear up one of the mains. Looks like they split the train between both the main line and siding in South Lyon.
What's B235? I can't find it in the symbol wiki. It looked like there was a train just west of Lake street crossing when I left for work at 240a this morning. Couldn't wait around to see if it was doing anything.
“B” trains are usually bulk commodities trains, meaning they are pulling one type of car. It could be all gasoline tankers, all ethanol cars, etc
In this case I believe B235 is a bulk potash train.
