Re: CN Location Updates December - 2023
There’s a baretable stopped over Fort Street in Trenton, with a CN GEVO long hood foward leading. Any idea what this is? Crazy! CN 2698 LHF started crossing at about 16:09. It made a few moves pulling further north, starting and stopping again along the way, but hasn't moved since 17:02, and it's s...

12E of some sorts enroute to Sterling Heights out of West Lake, Florida per the NS symbol updates page. No word on power. 10E-19E are empty autorack extras. Origination and destination do not apply to the first three digits of the train symbol in this case. Exclude 18E from that list, that's always...

Re: CN South Bend/Flint Sub
Even in the hey day of the Flint Sub in the late 90s early 2000's, the best you can do in Durand is 40ish, if I remember correctly the highest I ever got in my numerous 24 hour counts was in the mid 40's. 50 is unusual, anything above that is ridiculous. TSBY, HESR. Battle Creek would be maybe 5 or ...

Garry, they are planning to run on new tracks that are capable of much higher speeds than the old Amtrak route. The current Amtrak Fullerton to Kingman is 7 hours. Add in the bus from Kingman to Vegas, if you can even order that. New route is a 2 hour expected run. Went to Amtrak's site to try to b...
