EB with 3 CN engines was going through Davison at about 6pm. Had two flat cars with what looked like transformers on them about half way through the manifest.

Busy morning near Milwaukee Junction between about 11:30 and 11:45. What was likely 451 went north on to the Holly Sub, crossing Clay Ave at about 11:30. Before the gates went up, Amtrak 353, who was waiting patiently, proceeded SB on to the Shoreline Sub. A lot of people drove around the gates in between those two trains. Then I drove north to Holbrook Ave just in time to catch a short 950? going SB. Waiting on all this at Milwaukee Junction on the Conrail tracks was what appeared to a SB autorack train (headed by NS 1104?). I wasn't able to wait and see who to got to move through the junction first, the CN train or the NS train.

What looks like a 280 SB past MP 22.5 at 1:00 mp with 2605 leading 2466 (CR Blue).

Yesterday they dump ed ties along Main 2 from Opdyke Road (MP 22.2) south on the Holly. Must be doing some work there as that 280 is slowing down now.

2592 leading 5700 on Train 451 NB past MP 22.5 at 2:11 pm.
