Robert, I can barely read your post on my phone with the color bolding and fonts. Keep that in mind as most of us use a mobile device to post.

Agreed, kinda hurts my eyes a bit too, and why are you still looking at heritageunits if you're seeing the "bogus" reports you're talking about? You have this site for information

Last night around 10 pm a heavy SB went past MP 22.5, shaking the house like 450 used to with all the coiled steel it carried. Since there was a 116 yesterday I presume there wasn't a 508 so maybe it was a 450.

A two car passenger train went NB past MP 22.5 on the Holly at 11:50 am powered by a single CN GE. They were those grey cars we often see tacked onto Amtrak Trains to Pontiac.

251 through Trenton at 12:01 CN x3

Passing through Bloomfield at 2:06 pm. Good time today.

Right before it was a SB freight that I did not get a visual on. Short train.

It was L508. All of the old a450 cars now ride on A492 to Flint.

You’ve got a Q116 today as well as an M356. The Q116 was CN 8022 solo. M356 is CN 8950/rear DPU CN 8908.

Also of note,

EB M394 w BNSF 6266/CN 3305 (new C6M rebuild)/CN 6020 (rare SD40U) was thru Charlotte at 13:54 today

14:20 - WB R934 coming back from JAIL interchange crossing Waverly Rd w CN 5435

14:38 - EB X39491 w BNSF 6266/CN 3305/CN 6020 at Trowbridge

Man, lots of people use "Mobile" devices online now!!!! I don't do much online stuff with a phone and only post here on my home PC or any computer/laptop (never with a phone)! Yes, the pages are not the same as a big screen! Guess I will keep that in mind!!!!! I look for these old and/or unusual locomotives on "Heritage Units!" Yup, I have seen "Bogus" posts a few times!!!!!

Manistique, where did this train go with passenger cars? Will this be for Amtrak®? There have been times cars were brought! Or, will they be interchanged for LSRC?

356 going past MP 22.5 at 3:08 pm.

CN 8022 south by Beaubien with all Autoracks. Shoreline Sub, Detroit.

They are in Pontiac as usual. Probably go out on Amtrak. Becoming a more common site. If ever I could afford it, I would ride across country in one of these.

507 NB past MP 22.5 on the Holly with a green board on Main 2 at Opdyke Road at 6:30 pm.

A NB just flew by MP 22.5 at 8:02 pm. Maybe a late returning 515? Looked like it from the consist.

Overnight, EB M39471 w CN 2883/CP 8910/IC 2466 was by the MP 205 cam at 22:37 PM.

Train SB 515 is rolling past MP 22.5 with 5450 and eleven CN hoppers loaded with ballast on the head end, dynamic brake whining away keeping its speed steady down the hill with a heavier than usual train. Time: 8:06 am.

WB L501 worked Cory this morning. Now WB X27121 is setting off empty racks at Cory.

10:53 - WB X271 w CN 3828 solo at CP Mill headed to Cory after dropping a cut of racks at Snow Yard

Checking the Fort Street cam. @ 10:35 a single CN pushed a train through.
