D706-04 thru the EE of Brighton at 10:10 with the aforementioned power. I counted 169 but I'm pretty sure I got thrown off half way thru the train.

Looking back at the video, it is indeed 163.

Q326-04 @ 10:38:00 eastward Bangor's Division St crossing mp CG60.93 with CSXT engines #427 + #440 & 74 cars.

Q326-04 @ 11:07 eastward reported by the DD mp CG44.2 with 308 axles & 4,540 feet long.

(At this time, still, no word for Q327 - maybe a crewing issue)

Today is a different day.... D706 currently passing through East Lansing with AMTK 365 still at station. Huh.

5409+327 on head end.
D706 stretched from the wastewater treatment plant all the way north to CP MA. He had at least 9 crossings blocked thru Lansing at once as he crawled out of town!

Anything on D705-04? Seems like it’s about the right time they come through.

I haven't heard anything for D705-04 within the range I can hear on the Broadcastify scanners (Grand Rapids to about Ensel).

Yes, It went by Howell at 15:08 following D708-04 to Lansing with 74 cars. D705-04 had their power reversed, 901 now facing west on the lead. DPU 982 was after the 52nd car.

Dispatcher @ 15:32 advised someone that D708-04 was at Trowbridge [between mp CH83.1 & mp CH84.8] & D705-04 was right behind him.
