M391 at Delray. Pair of SD70M-2s

364 by 205 at 2304. it almost looked like there was a roll up door open towards the head end south side. I only saw it going away.

116 not far ahead. lots of stacks, looked like all international again. 2 units although I didn't catch what flavor

116 has CN 8888 & 5323. Going through East Lansing at 23:27 on main 1, so I assume Amtrak will pass them at Okemos.

364 has 4613 in the lead, and the Chargers have a big open grill on the rear side, that is probably the "open door"

edit

364 had a GE (58?) on the rear.

CN 5328 leading 8888 (off of 116 from the report from last night) is on Train 371 at 1:25 pm passing MP 22.5. Nice to hear the SD40-2 turbo whining in notch 8 crawling up the Hill out back.

At 2 pm what looked like 515 was SB past MP 22.5 with 5456 leading two CN road units and a couple tanks. My guess is the road units are for another container extra out of Moterm today.

396 by 205 at 1645. 2 cn and an excavator in the middle.

[Dan Cluley]

Amtrak 364 at East Lansing at 22:03.

Chargers 4613 & 4614.

[dispatcher38]

Westbound passing thru Durand currently. BC Rail-CN-CN-Union Pacific with mixed freight

[Manistique]

Train 371 with CN 2220 leading a BNSF is NB passing MP 22.5 at 1:07 pm.

Looks like an extra container train out of Moterm passing MP 22.5 at 7:45 pm with two CN's. Didn't see 514 today so I presume they had the day off.

There is a 514 today. It just went SB with 4916 and 5459 again past MP 22.5 at 9 pm with a few containers.

149 by 205 with 2 cn at 0748. Kind of a short train, only 200 and something axles. Either a slow day or a big day shipped in 2 pieces.

There is a train sitting south of Pontiac. Can’t tell what train or which direction they are going. My guess is it’s the local heading toward Warren.

[Manistique]

A NB, maybe an early 371 or that occasional extra out of Flat Rock (256?), is passing MP 22.5 at 9:34 am led by blue 2460 and CN 8889 (I think). CN is working on Main 2 out back so only Main 1 is open today. I imagine 515 is waiting for this train to arrive in Pontiac Yard before it heads south with one main out of service.

Train 515 with 5456 was SB past MP 22.5 at 10:15 am, out ahead of Amtrak 353.

383, CN 8920 is at Michigan / Ohio State Line.

[Manistique]

Train 515 with 5456 was NB passing MP 22.5 around 2:35 pm on its way back to Pontiac. Amtrak 350 with the dual Chargers was an hour or so late into Pontiac today again.

Train 514 with 4916 and 5459 again went SB lite past MP 22.5 at 5:15 pm.

Train 514 NB working up the Hill past MP 22.5 with a long train on containers.

And right behind 514 is 391 with two CN's and a short train on the other main. Both ahead of Amtrak 352, which is running a bit late.
