Where would MP 205 and MP 219 be located. I'm in Lansing and am hearing multiple defect detectors go off at those two mileposts.

BNSF 5815.

[KC8RBK]

205 is the west side of potterville, 219 is near Lansing rd and i496 on the west side of lansing but east of snow yard. If you're listening on my scanner feed those are the only 2 cn detectors I'm hearing today. If you have a radio on 160.59 you might hear the 232 if you're on the east side of town. It's at shoeman rd east of east lansing.
