SB Train 514 (all stacks) past MP 22.5 at 6:02 pm following a late-leaving Amtrak 355 down the Hill (Amtrak 355 seems to have been delayed by 251's passing).

Last night we had a WB G825 out of Flint. They went power light to Durand around 20:45 and picked up a 104 car grain train off of GLC and took it west. Train originated off of the MMRR/Breckenridge. Power was three units.

Amtrak 355 just went SB past MP 22.5 very slowly with power on the rear (missed whether there was power on the front end). Guessing it is a 20 mile shove move to wye the train at Milwaukee Junction because of problems with the power or not enough time.

Train 508 went past MP 22.5 around 7 pm.

A very short train that I did not see, only heard go by, went past MP 22.5 at 7:33 pm. Probably a SB 513?
