OK, looks like CN "Illinois Central Heritage" ET44AC #3008 is on train E251 now!!!!! The guy on "Heritage Units" (Railfan 222) posted this train northbound at Woodhaven at 3:37 p.m. OK, this is on the way to Royal Oak it looks like! Not leading though! Why does the guy mention "on it way to Toronto" then? :?: :!: :!: :?: This train is headed through Royal Oak to Durand on its way to IN! The destination reads "Gibson, IN (IHB)."
