LansingRailFan Asks: D708-22 took 80-something cars with them yesterday. What did they hand off to GLC? Are there the bad-ordered cars still in the passing siding at AP that GLC set off to CSX last week or did D708 take those with them yesterday? [/quote]

Just sent you a PM regarding this.

He left a track light on west of Michigan City, showing on the ATCS board. Amtrak just went through a few minutes ago, after taking some delay on the NS and presumably more running at restricted speed for a block west of town. They did not clear up the track light, so I guess it is time to call a maintainer!

D700 tied their engine down in the pocket track in Hartford on the WMI interchange. Tomorrow they will run light engine back to Waverly to get their Arlington Metals cars, then head to Sawyer.

Also, D705 is currently westbound climbing the hill at Fox at 01:49.
