Southbound just went through Durand at8:48pm. Guessing 450? Usual steel coils and racks and other mixed up front, but lots of stacks on the end.

Caught eastbound L500 at Duffield at 1:19pm after it departed Durand. Same power as earlier, first part racks, rest intermodal.

251 through Trenton at 12:17 BNSF + BCOL 4649 (blue)

North through Linden at 6:27pm.

I can hear a southbound going through Linden at 8:00pm.

Westbound intermodal/autorack train going through Durand at 12:26pm. 2 CNs for power, trailing was an older CN North America engine. 2512 I think.

Eastbound mixed freight going through Durand at 1:27pm. 2 CN 100 anniversary engines for power.

According to this new article, CN now has a second pair of intermodal trains serving Halifax. If I'm understanding the article right, it sounds like they go through Michigan. Here's a couple excerpts in case some can't read the article. "MONTREAL – Canadian National has added a second pair of interm...

As of 7:49pm, 508 is currently stopped in Gaines, with Red signals holding it there. Behind it is another southbound (mixed freight I think) in the siding on the south side of Durand. I didn’t get numbers, but 508 has two CNs for power, and the southbound behind it has a CN and NS for power. I saw t...

Something is lined up to take the Chicago eye down the Holly

Southbound through Gaines at 12:32pm. CN and NS leading, probably a few dozen stacks up front, and then lots and lots of empty racks on the back. 116 perhaps?

Northbound taking the wye in Durand and heading west at 6:08pm. Three CNs, mixed up front and auto racks on the back. 251 I presume?

Long Westbound through Durand at 12:52pm. Three CNs for power, some intermodal up front, than lots and lots of mixed on the back.

514 was heading south through Linden at 6:39pm. Two CNs for power, some intermodal up front, and the rest being mixed freight and a good amount of auto racks.

514 south through Durand at 5:40pm. CN 5671, 8885, 41 mixed, and 61 wells.

I could hear a southbound going through Linden at about 7:40pm. Not idea what it is - maybe 450 judging by the time of day?

Thank you for posting your videos atrain.

No problem!

I went out for a short trip to Durand to catch eastbound 492, since it was reported as having the new LSRC power on it. While waiting for it, I could see a southbound GLC train working the yard. 492 arrived in town at 2:37pm, coming to a stop at Byron Road east of town to wait for a westbound. -NqzY...

Eastbound 492 is passing the live Youtube camera just east of Charlotte at 1:25pm, with the two LSRC engines trailing like LRF said.

I saw GTW6401s heads up that 507 was leaving Pontiac with 251 following it north, so I headed to Gaines to wait for them. Took about 40 minutes for 507 to get there. It was mostly intermodal today, with a handful of other stuff up front. 4qWFnDfUpq8 About 15 or so minutes later, 251 arrived with 8 e...
