Folkz, (per 'Flying Eagle TV') "Train 382 north by 13 mile at 1215pm with CN 3964 (ex-CREX) and 2873 with 161 cars." :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: I myself (with Mom (Susan) were heading west 13 Mile near Groesbeck, Roseville! TRAIN RIGHT THERE!!!! Missed capturing it!!!!! Kinda upset at not getting! I then sent my friend Roger to Richmond to photograph 382 though!!!!! He got it with my lent 35mm Canon® passing the Grain Elevators! COOL!!!! It appears CN is equipping more ex "Citi Rail" ES44AC units with P.T.C. as was expected! I can only imagine they will be repainted in due time! They are cool at least!!!! :shock:

They stopped at Okemos (MP 227) on M1 to meet E251. E251 cleared the switch at 15:14 with 8945 and 2646. They had lots of 2-bay sand hoppers. M396 cleared the switch at 15:20.
