Taking M1 at Potterville as AMTK waits plus another WB. Prob the one that blocked Harrison Rd a bit ago by Trowbridge.

Re: CN Updates July 2021
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!!!!Man o' War wrote: ↑Sat Jul 24, 2021 9:28 pmM383 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.

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.

Re: CN Updates July 2021
Man what happened to this "Bessemer" engine? Will it come back to train 514? That didn't take long!!!!David Collins wrote: ↑Sun Jul 25, 2021 5:14 pmBLE 907 was just dropped in durand… had a full PTC meltdown
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?

South Haven is set up to put a northbound into the siding. No headlights yet.
I haven't lost my mind, it's on tape backup here somewhere...
