A southbound cleared the detector MP 59.9 (Holly Sub) at 1:56 PM. 6737 feet long 308 axles. Sounds like CN 3947.

If my luck holds I plan to catch this here in Waterford.

That doublestack train Jim reported in Waterford earlier is rolling past MP 22.5 at 3:40 pm.

And a few minutes after the doublestacked SB cleared, Train 451 is rolling NB past MP 22.5 with two CN locomotives. Great action on the Holly.
