I can't confirm it yet....but supposedly the NS 1074 is on an M394 coming to Battle Creek today. It was supposed to have left Griffith, Indiana, at about 10:30 this morning.

No idea if it was leading or trailing. I'm going to go looking.

Train M394 CN 2600 CN 2442 NS 1074 left battle Creek, about 1:45PM.....heading east.....

394 into the tunnel about 1910.

348 was preparing to work the yard at Port Huron.

The HR job had GTW 4633, but was back to the yard before 1800.
A Battle Creek crew was working at the west end of the yard on 4633, which 348 was told to watch out for.

I was on a road trip with my good friend Mazon for three days and was at Schoolcraft yesterday, April 23rd! We caught a westbound mixed freight at 2:34 p.m. with 3 engines! It had CN SD75I #5657, CN SD70ACe #8100, BNSF C44-9W #5504! That was our first time seeing the new "Blue CN!" I've been wanting to see one and now we did!!!! :mrgreen:

I just a few minutes ago learned that the NS 1074 is on an M383 train that just a few minutes ago departed Toronto.

The normal travel time between Toronto and Sarnia is only 3 or 4 hours, if they don't have any work en route, so that means a night time trip across Michigan for the NS 1074.

So.... I don't recall seeing anything recently about a 383 up and down the Mount Clemens Subdivision. So I ask....anybody familiar with an M383 on the Mount Clemens Sub?

Please do not poke at the ramp agent because he has the power to make your vacation
memorable or miserable. It all depends on what flight you bags go on.
