This morning I went out to Ann Arbor in hopes of catching all three trains that could be running in the early morning. The only given would be 351, and I would need a little luck for B25 and the Ann Arbor Railroad. After arriving and waiting on a late 351, it was clear my luck would be working out. I could hear the AA blowing northbound, and NS B25 hit the 35 detector. While I barely missed an over under, first the Ann Arbor Rolled North over the Huron River. Then 3 mins after the Ann Arbor cleared B25 rolled west at sunrise. Excuse the quality of the 351 shot. I did not have a good screenshot to transfer to my phone.

351 arrived and departed at about 7:40am Ann Arbor RS102 heads north at 7:55am B25 clears WB at 8:00am

I didn't know AA identified their road train as RS102. I can remember when they were still called TF or FT and then the number (I think they went up to 9 or 10).

Is there any information on the lead unit?

AFAIK RS101 is the first crew and RS102 is the Recrew. HLCX 4215 is leased by the AA currently. Former ICE unit still wearing the blue and gold. Has been on the property for a couple years now.
