What is probably 507 is passing MP 22.5 right now.

EB M356 was the second train. They peeled off the rear DPU in BC. By MP 205 at 16:20.
Did you see the train with D.P.U. Thursday, 11-24? Were the "Red Marker Lights" lit on the D.P.U.? What engine number was it?

Well, anywhere on this site where "Ssnow" is typed became snow (actually typed the real 'S' word and not "FWD")! Only way to make "SSNOW" show is to misspell it! :wink: Who's idea was this? It's not April 1st! White stuff is good!!!! :wink:

Robert, I'm going to answer your question on everyone's behalf and as politely as I can. We have lives, families, and jobs. We aren't able to answer all of your questions, ESPECIALLY on a holiday. This was days ago, and not really relevant anymore.

M382 met L515 at Mount Clemens at 11:00.

M383 by Mount Clemens depot at 13:45. CN/CN, 64 cars.

Not sure exactly what decade it is with L515 on some days. A panoply of mostly clean fallen flags for Chrysler in Mount Clemens arrive regularly. Conrail boxes with the large can opener, Norfolk and Western black with the big NW, Southern Pacific with the sunset route logo and, of course, GT blue "Good Track Road' cars - to name just a few. Quite interesting in 2022...

Man o' War reporting in 1982 or 2022 ?
