This was posted on the SC Milepost 65 Facebook page:

"CP trains 142/143 are headed back to run on CSX effective 5/11/17. In Ohio"

There was a reply stating they will be working North Baltimore as well.

Hearing this might be related to all of the recent "emergency" track work being done at Oak Yard in Detroit.

That's what I was wondering, although if they are running between Buffalo and Chicago like the last time (which is what others are saying they will be doing), they won't be going anywhere near Detroit and Oak yard. Maybe they are going via Buffalo until work at Oak is finished?

CSX Q150 and Q151 North Baltimore to Detroit intermodal will handle that part of the route

So will this train use CSX's Saginaw Sub to Plymouth then Detroit Sub to Oak Yard?

No, Q165/166 will run Buffalo to North Baltimore, then to Chicago and Vise versa. The work they do at North Baltimore will drop off/ pick up cars for/from the Q150/151 to take to oak yard. at least that is what I'm hearing

Nice more reason to go to Fostoria. That will bring in even more variety.

If this goes well in CP's view what are the chances of CP bringing trains back to CSX tracks??

What are the chances that the Plymouth-GRR-Porter line gets a piece of the
C.P. action?
