Z147 terminated in Flint with all of its cars being Moterm set offs or being added to Z149 when it stopped in Flint to set off it's Moterm containers. Power from Z147 could be used for a WB or EB rack train or potentially a grainer out of Durand, idk. The power stayed in Flint and did not go light to BC or Pontiac.

A B731 came into PH this morning via Sarnia.
CN 3208/CN 3176 and mid-train DPU CN 3032
200+ cars

B 731 is an empty potash train (really two trains in one) from Quebec City to Yarbo, SK that has been rerouted off of the shield due to track work up there. Crew is OD.

It's a very long train and the only siding that can take it between PH and BC is Imlay City. so this one kinda gets to go where it wants to go.

E274 and M396 both in BC as of an hour ago. Dispatch might run them out to get them at least to Potterville to meet M397 and B731.

Looking at ATCS:

M397 is at Davison currently and met a very long A492 at Lapeer.

B731 (10k feet) took the siding at Imlay City for A492 (over 10k and short on hours).

All in the last 20 minutes.

B731 on the move again.
