Re: CN Updates-May 2019
And CN 5456 is NB passing MP 22.5 with containers again today, working hard up the hill. This is something new. Is 533 still grabbing containers at Moterm?
Re: CN Updates-May 2019
371 had CN 2114, BNSF 1032 and BNSF 4006. Those two were off yesterdays 280.
Today's 280 had BNSF 7424 and 5661.
533 was working at Moterm while I was driving home. I drove under their engines on 8 Mile. CN 5459 and GTW 5844.

Two lite locomotives heading NB towards Pontiac past MP 22.5 at 7:39 am. Probably off of 116, which I think I heard go by around 3 am.

Re: CN Updates-May 2019
Yes. Came through Mount Clemens last night with a substantial train. Just seems to be an explosion in intermodal movements lately. Hope it's sustainable.Manistique wrote:And CN 5456 is NB passing MP 22.5 with containers again today, working hard up the hill. This is something new. Is 533 still grabbing containers at Moterm?

Re: CN Updates-May 2019
Desk 8 was asking earlier about a bnsf unit parked in snow. I figured they were going to have 371 pick it up but it must have been part of another plan.Manistique wrote:Maybe it picked up the two GE's off of 116 that went back to Pontiac this morning.KC8RBK wrote:By 205 at 2000 with 7 units now.

Re: CN Updates-May 2019
I wonder why? For 391 to take west maybe? 391 has been on the short side this past month or two. Sometimes I wonder if they combine 371 and 391 in Pontiac some nights. There are a fair amount of empties container cars in 513's container trains these past three days.GTW6401 wrote:513 - they have been moving the cars between Moterm and Pontiac.That extra container train that has been running in the early evening is again running, passing MP 22.5 at 8 pm with 5456 as power again today.
