Re: CN - June 2017
119 pulled out of Moterm with an SD70M-2 and SD75I and went through Royal Oak at about 5:20 PM. After it cleared, 116 continued south from the Royal Oak Amtrak Station to Moterm. Haven't seen intermodal action like that on the Holly in years.

Re: CN - June 2017
If it's northbound getting onto the Holly Subdivision, and if it's a manifest, then this time of day, it should be M391 from Toledo going to the Chicago area.

Re: CN - June 2017
A northbound cleared the detector at 12:37 AM I would guess this to be 391. I did not quite catch the axle count (sounded like 480)
Edit to add:
They cleared the detector MP 59.9 northbound at 1:08 AM. 480 axles.

This is just a glimpse of what's to come. The Moterm expansion is underway, our area will be flooded with intermodals soon enough....TrainStuff13 wrote:Haven't seen intermodal action like that on the Holly in years.

Re: CN - June 2017
It'd also be nice to see more autorack trains for Flat Rock or maybe Lake Orion if the plan to start shipping by rail ever goes through. And of course, the new intermodal train coming from UP.detroitbench wrote:This is just a glimpse of what's to come.

Re: CN - June 2017
Weekend 950/515 Local returning light to Pontiac with 4619 at 12:20 pm.
At around 6:30 pm two light locomotives (I think the same two from last night; first one a 2400 series cowl and other a 5600 series) SB past MP 22.5. Looks like another 119 tonight. Maybe rumors of the increase in the intermodal trains out of Moterm are true (but I will believe it when I see it).

Nothing has been running on the Holly due to power lines down across the rails near Fern.TrainStuff13 wrote:What looks like 391 is sitting on the Holly just north of Milwaukee Jct. Couldn't see the power.
