Is this northbound train 384? I know these "BLUE DEVILS" were on yesterday's southbound train 385! I am going to the tracks hoping they are heading up the Mt. Clemens Sub. Where are these engines now (8:14 p.m.)?

M384 (CN 2455 & 2436) had a rolling meet with L533S (CN 2693) at MOUNT siding - 20:10.

Yup, I missed it by only a few minutes when leaving work!!!! How likely are these units to come back on tomorrow's 385?
Wow, seeing two "BLUE DEVILS" on one train is "AMAZING!!!!"

Eb by 205 at 2338. I didn't see what it had for power but it had a beautiful horn and power in the middle.

About 140-150 empty centerbeam flats. CN 8831 on the head end and CN 2225 in the middle.

A westbound (probably 501) followed a couple of minutes later with CN 2656 & 57??.

Also, 505 is just arriving at Durand to work the yard. GECX 9539 leading.

Edit to add

394 approaching Potterville around 3:24 AM (Per the desk 8 )

Eastbound just past me at East Lansing at 03:59. Should be that 394.

Southbound approaching Delray

Does anyone know what "Power" train #385 has today, 7-17? Two days ago (7-15), 385 had "Blue" IC C40-8Ws #2455 and 2456!!!! I did not see it! Those two units came back north on train #384 yesterday! I missed that train by just a few minutes! It passed near my work just before I got out! I want to catch these "BLUE DEVILS!!!!" Please help!!!!

EDIT: Southbound train 533 had CN SD60 #5407 with four loaded "Well Car" sets, cleared Common Road, Roseville, 704 p.m. Southbound train 385 did not have "BLUE DEVILS!" It had just a CN C44-9W and a "Blue Lease" GE, didn't count cars!
"Zhid!"
