That would be 391 with 35 cars, they didn't know if they would have work at Moterm or not.

The ATCS shows a train lined North up the Holly, I guess it could be 391 but I have not heard anything on 391 tonight.

CN 391 is still on the Holly somewhere around Moterm, so the train on the ATCS is not 391 and most likely came out of Pontiac Yard.

391 started the pickup at Moterm just after 8:00, CN 2505 and 2416.

104 came up to Moterm at 4:45pm with the GTW 4618 and returned light engine.

387 got a signal out of East Yard at 6:05pm with the CN 2423 leading.

I believe 490 is in Durand right now. Also, the nb arrived into Durand about 20 mins ago. Finally, Amtrak 364 appears to be using the bus for passengers tonight due to a "service disruption". They arrived into Port Huron 4 hours and 28 mins late this morning and 365 this morning then was nearly an hour and a half late westbound leaving P.H.

The NB train on the Holly appeared to have been waiting at Pitt for 490 to finish their Durand work. The NB train on the Holly appears to be lined East and looks like it could do work at Durand. I would really be interested to hear what train this is.

It doesnt make sense why they couldnt run w just a P42 the remainder of the trip but I suppose they couldnt wye it anywhere, assuming the cabbage was leading it sounds like. And thanks for the engines report on 490.. hes still sitting at Oak st. i think?

391 just gave there mark up to the dispatcher after working Pontiac. I walked in at the end and only got the footage at 9937 feet long and no work at Durand. It sounded like a 2505 in the lead.

At the moment in Durand, there are the northbound, probably 501 that completed work and is just departing, 490 is still at oak st waiting to go south, GLC is pulling north onto the Holly and 391 is coming into north gaines. What a nice cluster!

386 is at Beaubien, and will be pulling into East Yard in a couple minutes.

513 ran south out of Pontiac tonight, and is currently waiting at Chrysler for a signal into East Yard.

Another local with the GTW 4618 is working between Nolan and MP20, Mount Clemens Subdivision.

CN 5800 received an authority at Nolan to Tappan at 3:55am. I believe this was 144.
