Re: CN Updates January 2017
CN hit a car that got stuck on the tracks at Waverly Rd in Lansing this morning around 6:00. Nobody was injured. No delays to Amtrak 365 either. I'm wondering if the very dense fog factored into this. When I was driving home at 2 this morning you couldn't see 50 feet in front of you. They did say too that it was an elderly driver.

Train 451 past MP 22.5 on the Holly at 12:35 pm NB.
Power on 451 were two very ordinary looking modern locomotives: a GE and an EMD/CAT but didn't get their numbers.

Re: CN Updates January 2017
Train 950 with GTW 6225 leading is good to south from Pontiac with 10 cars 9:44 AM.
First stop is Royal Oak Recycling, believe they are headed to east yard after that.

Spotted by Robert Borg. CN W.B. at Cory Tard in Delta Twp (Lansing) Mich with CN SD70 and BCOL 4618. Has to do work at the yard. Spotted at 1315.
Also spotted at 1315 is an E.B. CN manifest with IC 1025 as the leader and a CN SD70 trailing.
