An extra container train went NB past MP 22.5 at 7:50 pm on the Holly. Long train but most of it single stacked. Two of the three locomotives from the 140 that ran the other day SB on the head end, a 5400 and a BCRail black 4600 series cowl. I presume it is the returning 140.

A NB just passed MP 22.5 at 1:07 pm. No autoracks on it so maybe not 451? CN 2446 was the second unit.

Two light locomotives, a 5400 and a bright blue EMD lease unit drifted NB past MP 22.5 at 6:10 am. Power from a container train that didn't continue on to Flat Rock from Moterm maybe and will layover at Pontiac?

Train 451 went through Pontiac at 12:45 pm today. Missed the power but long train.

Amtrak 350/355 has been running with five cars, two of which are snack cars, this summer. No more baggage car.
