L303-03 @ 04:33 eastward was reported by the DD mp CH104.3 Mulliken, Mi with 290 axles. CSX engines #406 + #7788 + 1 & 68 cars. He had work in Lansing. Couldn't find his full job briefing, so, no idea what the 3rd engine was. I'm guessing it may have been the same 3rd engine that L302 had brought into Grand Rapids & maybe they wanted it spun around?


M327-04 @ 08:35 westward reported by the DD mp CG19.1 Zeeland, Mi with 288 axles. CSX engines #859 + #5490 & 69 cars (12 loads + 57 empties).

L302 took one of the two L304+305 units to GRP to get them back to back finally after running long end first for the last ten days. G817-03 grain load from Webberville went east after midnight last night, with 582 + 4575 on the head end. Even though I was at the window to see this one, after missing the empty go west, special thanks to GP75745 for what would have been the lead unit on the empty as I still could not read the number when it passed by. This was one of the lastest rebuild units from Huntington in YN3c paint. Have yet to even see a photo of this unit since it was repaited.
