I noticed Extra 484 east had 35 minute delay to "reduce" at Florida. Are they reducing retainers? Just curious. Thanks Jimmy. Always interesting.

No, they are setting out car(s) in order to reduce tonnage. Some sort of situation developed that the engine was unable to handle entire train at that location.
