This was C801-05 with BNSF engine #9003 leading & probably has the BNSF #5682 as its rear dpu. He had some kind of issue that had him stopped in the area of Livingston CG99.3 Unknown if he was stopped on the main track or if he had gone into the siding. E800-05 was waiting to cross the St Joseph Bridge, but, they decided to go ahead & have him run since C801-05 was still having issues.

C801-05 @ 21:01 eastward reported by the DD mp CG91.9 with 516 axles & 6,768 feet long. BNSF engines #9003 + #8782 (both engines were on the headend) & 126 loaded coal cars. He'll hold at Paw Paw mp CG85 for Amtrak P370 to pass by.

Amtrak P370-06 @ 21:24 eastward reported by the Defect Detector site mp CG91.9 St. Joseph, Mi with 16 axles & 306 feet long. IDTX engine #4628 & 3 SuperLiners.

Makes sense with the C801. Looks like they stabbed Amtrak for about 15 minutes in the process.

As of 20:49 CT, E800 is rolling through Michigan City

It could be BNSF 5682 or BNSF 7321. I did make out a 2 in the engine tab. Too blurry to see.

For the previous post on C801-05, didn’t they pass DD 91.9 then eastward to Paw Paw mp85? Another typo on DD numbers.
