116? Through Royal Oak. I think BNSF as leading unit. Sorry, unfamiliar with the Holly Sub :lol:

149 just into Port Huron. CN 2451 NS 1104 BNSF 5241 F/R/F. Had several domestic boxes in addition to the normal load of international containers.

Before 149 got here, there was already a double stack train on one of the mains- but 533 sits in the yard prior to departing west, so I'm not sure what other intermodal would be in town at this time of afternoon...?

394 should be just arriving on the Sarnia side of the border. CN 2584 IC 2724 CN 2030. All locomotives facing forward.

149 appears to be blocking whatever other train was sitting next to 394 earlier, but I see a signal indicating something other than stop on Track 4 at the West end of the Port Huron yard. Which is unusual because I'm pretty sure that's the same track 394 just departed from.

Westbound just into Port Huron with BNSF 9285 BNSF 9054. Had a LOT of tank cars and half a dozen or so articulated autoracks.
I think they referred to themselves as 509 when talking to US Customs on the Canadian side.
I'm pretty sure I saw the same power at some point yesterday on an eastbound train headed for Canada.

509 runs London to Sarnia and back in the morning. Perhaps no room for them in Sarnia.
