Per a friend not in the hobby, she couldn’t tell which direction but there was something that went through Chesterfield at 10am exactly. What could’ve that been?

12:30 - WB M399 with CN ex-CitiRail 2774/CN ex-CitiRail 2762 thru Charlotte
Today’s EB A492 with CN ex-CitiRail 2774/CN ex-CitiRail 2762 from yesterday’s M399 is at Potterville. R934 is WB on M2 heading into Cory Yard so WB M399 was slowing up behind it near Mill

Hopefully I can catch em' on 491 heading back tomorrow

I'm guessing that may have been M383 which was held north of Mount Clemens until 515 could get into MOUNT siding. Been busy around here today...

16:00 - What I presume was E251, westbound by MP 225 M2, 8945, 2720, and 3149 leading mostly racks with some general manifest mixed in.

They will take M1 at Mill (MP 215) for an EB who hasn't passed Walton yet.
