Re: CN Train Location Updates - March 2024
Graham Halverson, you must mean "GTW 5931" as there is no CN 5931! There, however, is "CN" painted GTW SD40-2 #5931!Graham Halverson wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 9:23 amL575 passing the Fort St cam at 9:23.
CN 5931 leading LHF.
LansingRailfan! So, ex GTW GP9 #4910 was not moved from Snow Yard last Friday, 3-22? It was cold and snowy! Makes sense that a switch was frozen! Cool it may be going somewhere on the GDLK!!!! But R934 moved it Monday (3-25) to Snow Yard? This would have been nice to catch! What day likely will RBEX 4910 now go to Battle Creek? Did L501 already move it? Is it going to a customer based on GDLK? This is cool, but I doubt I will see this now in transit!LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 4:50 pmR934 pulled it today. The switch was frozen last week.Robertrains wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2024 9:07 amLansingRailFan!!!! I was "Off the Grid" since Friday night! But, I would have gone to Lansing that Friday March 22nd if "Railfan Gary" was available! Man old LBWL GP9 would have been great to see! Especially with the "Orange" EJ&E SD38-3 locomotive pulling in fresh snow!!!! Now, does anyone know when ex GTW GP9 #4910 will depart Lansing Snow Yard?LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 4:20 pmR934 with EJE 663 went to the Delta Siding switch today to grab RBEX 4910 the old LBWL GP9. They brought it back to Snow Yard for L501 to take.
It’ll take L501 to BC. From there it will take L539 to Pavillion. It’s going to somewhere on the Grand Elk I believe.
RBEX 4910 is the new reporting marks.

A CN SD75I lite powered into Flat Rock yard at 12:49. Must be power for A384 or something…

Re: CN Train Location Updates - March 2024
LansingRailfan! Glad the IC unit I missed leading Q-122 on March 16th east has returned! Now, I see on "Heritage Units" that EJE SD38-3 #663 went east last night!LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 11:35 amEB A492 dropped off IC 6250 (OLS unit) in Lansing yesterday.

It was posted (by Warren Michigan Railfan) at Durand, 12:14 a.m. 3-27! Where is CN taking this unit? EJE 663 H.U. link: https://heritageunits.com/
Graham Halverson! I was at Flat Rock yesterday! There was a CN job using a CN SD75I heading north with "Auto Racks" around 3 p.m. The previous week, Schaefer Yard had two of these sitting! Maybe that is the local power now!!!!! It would be nice with better engines on "Hoop Track" through Allen Park! I, along with a "Goofy Guy" ended up going to the south end of Flat Rock instead of seeing the CN SD75I! By doing this, we caught IORY heading southbound Long Hood Forward with an ex BNSF C44-9W in H2 orange! What days does IORY run to Flat Rock now? Is it still just three days per week? I know it used to be Monday, Wednesday, Friday and sometimes Saturday! Heck, in the 1990s they were every day and multiple times!Graham Halverson wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 12:49 pmA CN SD75I lite powered into Flat Rock yard at 12:49. Must be power for A384 or something…
