502 Rolled passed the detector MP 34.2 about 10:35 PM. with 340 axles. I am just going on what I hear on the scanner and not 100 % sure on engine numbers tonight. but I do believe 502 has CN 2886.
Also 391 is working in the yard at Pontiac and believe it is BNSF 6301 leading.

OK, the new CTC is on and working between "Nolan" and "Tappan!" I guess this means no more "Track Authority" north of "Nolan!!!!" OK, does anyone know if there would be any "Chatter" of trains as they travel down the line? I will miss this!!!! Now, here's what was said by Brian on the "Other" Board: "Thanks for the updates. At least one person was able to make a recording of the last track authority given, a little before noon on Friday (10-20). The honor went to L524 NB heading back to Port Huron. "
