Both on Main 2 with E251 holding on Main 1, I'd guess stopped at Cedar. They were right on the heels of that Amtrak!

It’s L501 making the EB turn. They are just running one crew/train each way due to auto shutdowns.

3:24 AM - WB 4-unit mixed freight by the 205 cam - too misty and spider-webby to determine power. Most likely a 397 or 399

3:26 AM the mid-train DPU goes by so now it's 5-unit train. - I'm thinking M399
