Train 116 is passing MP 22.5 right now at 7:48 am. CN 2150 and 2190 as power. Funny how long it takes some trains to get from Charlotte to here. I presume Pontiac is really their destination and they hold them there until either the final destination's yard is ready for them or they get a crew called. Probably the latter. So much for "Precision Railroading." And Moterm, this train's final destination, is just 18 miles south of Pontiac.
