Train 451 has ten (10) locomotives on it today. Two CN leading a mix of BNSF, UP, plus a BCRail and warbonnet lease unit. NB past MP 22.5 on the Holly at 2:35 with a shorter train.

There were two SB's this morning following Amtrak 351 out of Pontiac between 6 am and 6:30. One looked like a 280 and the other was 116. Did not see the Local out of Pontiac go by this morning so maybe they have the day off.

Pretty sure this one just came by 205 at 1915. Must have tied down along the way last night or there's another train really heavy on power tooling around.

Other than Amtrak, the only train on the Holly yesterday was last night around 10 pm. I presume it was 502. Heard one earlier this morning which I presume was 116. Nice that they pretty much had Christmas Day off out this way.
