D706-14 had six units this morning in Howell at 07:15 with 79 cars. 286+131+8502cp,8789cp+2652+4006. Probably taking the CP units to Detroit to turn them so they can be facing forward when the potash train at Webberville is ready to go empty.

19:37 CT: Amtrak P370 is currently rolling through Michigan City, roughly on time.
Fun seeing 354, 370 and 30 form a parade out of Union Station again, just like old times, pre-pandemic.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - July 2021
There was a report of possible debris on or near the track somewhere east of Lansing due to a storm & D706 was advised to report anything he may see. Also, had heard at 08:02, D706 was given permission to proceed by the Stop signal at the east end of Trowbridge after he had came to a complete stop there 1st.bluewonderrails wrote: ↑Sun Jul 25, 2021 8:16 amCrossed CH84.43 in East Lansing.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - July 2021
Gotcha. I'd originally typed that it may have a stop signal EE Trowbridge hearing on radio but as I left to go that way and saw it crossing CH83.03, retracted it. Didn't catch the debris part.Tom49801 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 25, 2021 8:29 amThere was a report of possible debris on or near the track somewhere east of Lansing due to a storm & D706 was advised to report anything he may see.

D706-25 also was creeping through Howell at 09:15 with 39 cars. 8619 was shut down. Thought perhaps they were pulling into the siding here to meet D705, but that was nearly 45 minutes ago now.

Has D705 rolled West yet ?

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - July 2021
At 10:06 it had sounded like D705 was having some kind of issues & needed to call the Mechanical Dept at or near Plymouth? Call was pretty broken up.
Ok, that was incorrect, I found in the archives that radio call from the RN Dispatcher was for a different train (Q200-25), scanners are pulling calls in from all over the place.
