Re: CN Updates-May 2019
At 7:00 pm that SD60 5459 I reported heading lite SB out of Pontiac earlier this afternoon was northbound at MP 22.0 with a container train, the second "extra" NB container train today. It was the sole power.
At 8 pm there is what appears to be an all autorack train stopped at Charing Cross in Bloomfield Hills. I could not see the power but it wasn't moving. Odd spot to stop but it ain't blocking any roads there. From the signals at Opdyke it looked like it was on Main 1, which means it is blocking Amtrak 352 heading to Pontiac until it moves north or south further. Amtrak is shown as an hour late arriving at Troy, maybe because of this?
What I presume is 391 is passing MP 22.5 at 8:48 pm with five units, the second being CP 8703 and the last being GT 4626, the last rebuilt GP9R. It has a long train with a lot of headend cars for Pontiac and a ton of autoracks so I am presuming this was the stopped train I saw at Charing Cross an hour ago, on its way again.
Edit: I bet the above train was a late 371 and not 391. It looked more like it except for its late time. No 391 yet.
At 9:47 pm a two or three unit set of lite locomotives went SB past MP 22.5. Stay tuned. Strange evening on the Holly.

I saw 391 in Royal Oak just before 11pm, and they are now going by Gaines with 516 axles.
