Heard a light locomotive NB passing MP 22.5 at 5 am today. Sounded like an old turbocharged locomotive so I am guessing they ran a 513 on the South Holly last night with that IC 6200 I saw yesterday.

And 371 is now rolling slowly past MP 22.5 at 1:48 pm with a CN 2300 leading a leased CSX and Citi 7016 in shiny new blue paint on Main 1. They might be doing track work on Main 2 in Pontiac as the signal at Opdyke Road has been red these last few days for northbound moves instead of the usual yellow restricting.
