507 passing MP 22.5 at 6:58 pm. Lead unit was a 5700. Second was a very faded SD40-2L, maybe 5340.

And just as 507 cleared, 508 is rolling by now. Too dark to see the locomotives. Call it a meet out back.

Well, had another Southbound S756 just go by Linden maybe around 12:30 or so.

2 CN locomotives and 1 CN pushing on the rear. Probably the typical 100 cars, but didn't do a count.
