Eb stopped at 204.42 to flag a crossing. Someone shot the signal bungalow just after midnight at my crossing. Looks like 2 cn and stacks on the head end. Video of the round hitting the case should be up by now

Z148 east clear mp223 at 01:33. IC #2700, CN #2230

The EB prior must've been a good-sized L500. Arrived to Durand M1 and prepped to work at its yard.

The Q116 that runs thru Wisconsin and terminates at Homewood is SB at Fon Du Lac, WI at 10:40 am with CN 3115 (BCOL HU)/CN 3939 (ex-CREX leaser) as the mid train DPU and CN 3008 (IC HU) as the rear facing rear DPU on an intermodal. Wild lashup from start to finish. Hopefully these units continue east to MI on some sort of train.

Has this 116 been known to have its power end up on the 116 that takes the Holly?

So that train was actually M399. It'd come out of Flint Yard hence my assumption.

The actual A491 passed by Durand westward at 13:31. CN #3003, #3871
