Haven't heard anything about 385 yet. Just getting back into the swing of things, as I've been very busy these past few weeks with school.detroitbench wrote: I was wonder what stopped 383 this morning. That explains it. Any word on 385 yet today?

Train 950 returning to Pontiac passed MP 22.5 at 3:15 pm with a light engine only. Amtrak 350 passed him on Main 1 behind my house.

Was the DPU running "Mid-Train" or on the rear? Also, did it have its "Red Marker Lights" turned on? How many cars? CN seems to be doing this more!!!!

Re: CN Updates March 2017
A southbound cleared the detector MP 34.2 at 11:25 PM (280 Possibly). also as I type this a train is headed around the Chicago Wye (11:30 PM) I am guessing 116. no engine numbers yet but will edit if/when I get them.
edit to add:
the second train I mention above has cleared the detector MP34.2 southbound at 12:16 AM, with 354 axels, CN 2586 leading. This train has pulled down to Johnson Ave., and are waiting on a re-crew. I am leaning toward his being 116 in large part due to the first train not working Pontiac.
While here I will add 514 cleared the detector MP 34.2 southbound at 12:30 AM, 44 axels.

CN 2586 is NOT 116 as I thought, 116 already at Moterm. CN 2586 is good to depart Pontiac southbound at 1:17 AM.kc8bdr wrote:A southbound cleared the detector MP 34.2 at 11:25 PM (280 Possibly). also as I type this a train is headed around the Chicago Wye (11:30 PM) I am guessing 116. no engine numbers yet but will edit if/when I get them.
