I will have a report by the time you are back, Scott. 350's lateness helps.

did one of the AMTKs today have a different unit on it than a P42? I work at the UofM ER entrance (just beyond the helipad from the tracks) and heard a train go thru around 12:30 I want to say. But it didn't have the normal P42 horn; nor a normal F40 horn.

90200 is the one with the "off" sounding horn. You can always tell when it's the leading power from afar
