514 is done at Red Lava and headed for Durand. 505 is done at Durand and headed back to the rest of the train. Also 116 is reported at Okemos.

Train 116 SB past MP 22.5 at 7:22 am with two BNSF Units (first one was, I think, 9600) and GTW 5831. Just some doublestacks in the middle. Mostly autoracks. Maybe a combined 116/280?

Train 950 SB past MP 22.2 at 9:20 am with IC 9571.

M385 past Mt. Clemens depot at 18:23. CN 2866 and a Canadian Pacific unit.

We had two NBs past MP 22.5 on the Holly this evening. Around 7 pm was what I thought an early 391. The two BNSF units that were on that 116/280 this morning were powering it, elephant style with the 6000 turned and leading. Maybe it was a late 451? I was gone from 10 until 2 so didn't see if 451 went by at its more usual time.

Then at 8 pm another NB went by. Maybe this was 391. Two CN units.

Amtrak 352 was running late, going NB past MP 22.5 around 8:20 pm. The eastbound Amtraks have been running late all summer, probably due to track work somewheres.

You sir, are correct. First train was a tardy 451, with 391 not too far behind when they came by you....

M382 past the summit at Mt. Clemens depot, 09:20.

OK, does anyone know the "Schedule" of this train? I sure want to catch the "RARE" WC unit!!!! Will it come back to Michigan? What about "Spraying" the Mt. Clemens, Holly or Shoreline Subdivisions? Please help!!!! Here's a video, © Jeremy W, of the "Weed Train" at Schoolcraft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0B4Ts6l_lU
