Re: CN Train Location Updates - March 2023
Last night Trains 507 and 508 must have passed each other just south of Pontiac as 508 went by just after 507 cleared MP 22.5. First time in a while that they have been running about the same schedule out back.
This morning SB 515 with 5430 went by a bit early, 7:15 am, with a lot of boxcars for Chrysler in the train.

M399 west appeared on mp205 cam at 13:00. CN trio #3118, #3929 (ex CREX), #3186
As of 13:20, Q116 has been stopped at cpClara mp252.9 since before noontime. The tracks on the Chicago Wye were both interchanged for it ahead of time. It's more than the first time Q116 has been stopped here, so unsure if it's a crew change which is my first thought or something else.
----- As of 13:32, Q116 is lined to proceed SB.
