Re: CN Updates January 2017
They ran the local 950 today on the holiday. Don't think it ran yesterday or at least didn't see it. I caught it returning to Pontiac NB at MP 22.2 at 3 pm following Amtrak 350 with 4916 and a half dozen cars.

Re: CN Updates January 2017
I believe you are correct about that. I heard that 5787 solo was the power on 116.kc8bdr wrote:CN 5787 cleared the detector MP 34.2 southbound at 9:29 PM, with 138 axels.

Re: CN Updates January 2017
Local 950 drifted south past MP 22.5 at 8:40 with 4916 and seven boxcars.
A NB just went by MP 22.5 with that CSX unit that was on 280 yesterday, a CN unit and about a dozen cars, mixed freight. Maybe an early, autorackless, Federal Holiday Train 451?
