15:27 - WB M399 with CN 8952 (GTW HU, not a big suitcase)/CN 2532 at Granger, IN
“The Big Suitcase” is a GTW nickname

Passing MP 22.5 at 1:28 pm. It is nice to see that steel rolling by on the Holly again after a multiyear absence.

U713 was by Mount Clemens depot at 12:08. It met x484 at Haven and L515 at Nolan. This was the 5th U series train on the MTC in the past two weeks - appears to be a somewhat regular visitor these days. Also an unknown symbol to me has been running several times a week in the wee hours northbound on the MTC with strictly tanks and chemical hoppers - seems like a Sarnia destination train?

U713 had CN 2842/2830 - Thanks for the note on seeing it and the increased frequency of it.
Only other ones noted:
U714 - 01/21 - loads
U713 - 12/24 (the first set of empties to Bluffton via Mount Clemens Sub)

Unsure what the other train might be outside of an X382.

Gosh, what the 💩 "POOP" 💩 is happening here? 😲 😲 😲 😲 WOW!!!! 😲 😲 😲 😲 Is CN taking back this old BNSF (BN) engine for lease? :?: That would be cool! I thought GP38-2 #2098 was returned to BNSF! Why? What about the "Tarped" engine? 😱 GEEZ!!!! 😱 This would have been much nicer in daylight of course!!!! :shock: :shock: 😲 😲 😲 😲 WOW!!!! 😲 😲 😲 😲 :shock: :shock:

CN 5273, a very faded SD40-2L, is the power on 515 today, the SB version which is passing MP 22.5 at 7:41 am with a train mostly of loaded centerbeams this morning.
