If anybody knows if that GTW Heritage Unit is coming back North, please post so I can drive up to the crossing in Linden and see it :D

Thanks.

Speculation has it that it will come back from Flat Rock on E251. It could also go up the Mt. Clemens sub on M384, but lately the power from Q116 has been on the next 251.

Thanks BNSF Ben. If someone can let us know when 251 departs Pontiac, that would be great.

Would like to get some pictures.

Thank you!!

251 is on duty. Pickup and adding two engines before departing from Pontiac. CN 3210 & 3048 are those engines.

Signals in Durand are clear both a westbound on the Flint Sub, and for a southbound on the Holly Sub. I’m guessing the Holly Sub train will be 514, most likely following the westbound into Durand, since there are no eastbounds on the ATCS.
