M383 by Mount Clemens depot at @2100 with 2 mid-train dpu's - one of them a Zebra Cowl!!!! Couldn't see any numbers through the deluge.

Man o' War

WOW COWLS!!!! Does anyone know where this "Cowl" is now? Anyone know the numbers of this "Zebra Cowl?" Man, I guess some are still around! I don't ever remember one being a D.P.U. Could this happen more? Will this engine head back north on A482 (old 384)? Maybe some are being equipped specifically for this!!!!

A492 clear MP 203 at 12:55 PM. CN 3246/CN 3889 Both elephant style.

A491 w CN 3199/CN 3092 by MP 203 at 1:45 PM

CN B731 due into Port Huron by 4:00 PM.

CN/CN leaders. 182 cars. Empty potash train reroute.

IC 1038/CN 5766 WB out of Flint and into Durand Yard at 3:02 PM. Unsure of what they are picking up at this time or if they are just turning one of the units. Both units were facing East.

Running as an X396. Picking up entire train in Durand. Lotta grain/corn/beans plus other cars from GLC/HESR. Flint based crew.

So unfortunately there goes IC 1038.

Man what happened to this "Bessemer" engine? Will it come back to train 514? That didn't take long!!!!

Also, somehow I missed CN "Zebra Cowl" #2423 on train A482 trailing fourth of four locos! That's the "Zebra Cowl" that was on train 383 yesterday!!!! I was close to Mt. Clemens when it was passing at 5:40 p.m. POOP!!!! Now, would this engine be expected to return to the Mt. Clemens Sub. soon?
