Train 451 was stopped on the Hill with its light out just south of Opdyke Road at 12:30 pm with a green signal on Main 2 while I was out walking. At 1 pm I heard it blowing its horn for Opdyke so it was on its way. First locomotive was a BNSF. Second a blue CITI lease unit. Couldn't see if there were any others.

Train 515 with 6221 solo NB past MP 22.5 at 4 pm on its way back to Pontiac.
