Train 391 rolling NB past MP 22.5 Holly at 7:16 pm.
From Jim's report above, 502 is waiting for them at Pontiac and it appears they swap crews with 391 and head back to where they came from and are going to.

I will add that 391 just got the nod to depart Pontiac northbound. at 8:52 PM. CN 2546? leading.
edit to add:
391 is clear of the detector MP 34.2. at 9:12 PM 212 axels.

Re: CN Updates Febuary 2017
I heard a SB freight and NB Amtrak 355 pass each other behind my house at MP 22.5 at 2 am (an hour late for Amtrak). Must have been that 116 that Jim reported, though it meant it sat at Pontiac for a few hours. No other SB's by my house since 4 am this morning so that other one must still be sitting at Johnson Avenue.
At 10:25 am train 950 rolled SB with 3129 and at 10:30 train 950 followed SB with 4929, both sneaking out in front of Amtrak again. Kind dispatcher lately.
At 1:20 pm a long 451 rolled NB past MP 22.5 with 5781 and 2510.
