CN Updates 10-24 to 10-30

Unread post by TwisterJay29 »

502 was coming thru Royal Oak about midnight. I was too far from the gates to get any of the engine numbers but there were 2 CN engines and an IC engine. They were stopping to work at Moterm. Also Amtrak 354 just came thru Royal Oak.

About 5:30 pm, I saw a single GTW engine heading north thru Royal Oak but I was not close enough to the tracks to catch the numbers on the engine.
