Re: CN Updates March 2017
3 CN locos north on the Clem approaching Nolan. Unsure on power as I was too far away to read the numbers.

Re: CN Updates March 2017
Train 515 returning to Pontiac NB past MP 22.5 at 5:20 pm.
SB going by MP 22.5 Holly with two CN units. May be a Train 280 as, except for some mixed traffic on the head end, it was all autoracks. Shorter train.
NB Train 391 rolling past MP 22.5 with two CN units at 7:58 pm.

2146 east with a short stack train by East Lansing at 20:06. I assume train 116, but no general freight.

Re: CN Updates March 2017
Train 950 with 4901 SB past MP 22.5 at 10:05 am with two tank cars.
And right behind 950 is 515 with 4912 SB past MP 22.5 at 10:30 in front of Amtrak.
Heard what I presume was 451 going through downtown Pontiac at 12:10 pm.
Train 950 returned to Pontiac past MP 22.5 at 2:15 pm.

Re: CN Updates March 2017
383 is south on the Clem passing thru the Milwaukee Junction. I didn't see the power but did catch DPU CN 2804 in the middle of this long mixed freight train.

Re: CN Updates March 2017
There was a SB at Avery with a single engine around 10am. Might be a 280 with a CN engine.

Re: CN Updates March 2017
Another SB just went past MP 22.5. Didn't catch the locomotive(s) but it was very short. Almost looked like a third local train this morning.
