Problem for picture takers and Robert, is that M384 is seldom on the MTC sub until around 11:00pm - or later...David Collins wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:18 pm*should* (keyword: should) be on M384 tomorrow, unsure if leading or trailing.Robertrains wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 12:41 pmOK Folks, CN "EJE Heritage" ET44AC #3023 did not come back north on train 382 today (2-25) as some predicted! I "ZOOMED" by bicycle to the tracks when I heard a northbound horn from my new house in Fraser around 11:30 a.m. Well I made it in time by a few minutes! The sound really travels on these new ET44ACs!!!! Instead, just two regular CN ones, #3034/3084 ,with 137 cars! It cleared Masonic Road approx. 11:40 a.m. The "J Heritage" unit instead was spotted on "Heritage Units" (by GabeStar19 ) at 11:28 today just sitting in the yard! Well, it probably will come back north on some train tomorrow! Does anyone here know?

Technically 19:30 since Griffith is in the Central Time Zone. (FYI for anyone that goes to watch the camera)LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 9:30 pmEB S75681 with CN/CN up front and rear CN DPU clear Griffith, IN at 20:30

That S756 must have been the train I heard around 5:30 this morning as this is not a "normal" time for a train thru Linden, although, of course, any train can run at any time.

SB 515 with 5466 just passed MP 22.5 at 7:48 am with 32 cars today, empty gondolas up front, a few boxcars, a ton of loaded centerbeams for a change, then boxcars on the rear, probably for Chrysler.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - February 2024
David Collins/Man o' War! "EJE Heritage" ET44AC #3023 actually was leading train 384 last night! Missed!!!! However, I already got this engine good Saturday! It was spotted on "Heritage Units" (by Steve K.) in Columbus, MI at 12:23 a.m. early Feb. 26. Now, I heard a northbound yesterday around 7:30 p.m. What was that? Seems early for 384 but 382 already passed! Maybe that was train 384, but why did it take almost 5 hours to get to Columbus?David Collins wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:18 pmRobertrains wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 12:41 pmOK Folks, CN "EJE Heritage" ET44AC #3023 did not come back north on train 382 today (2-25) as some predicted!

507 went by MP 22.5 real slow at 5:25 pm admitting defeat that Amtrak 355 has the right away to crossover to Main 1 in Pontiac and stab him. Short train.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - February 2024
LansingRailfan! Cool that CN "Illinois Central Heritage" ET44AC #3008 is on train A492! Does this mean it will likely lead a train into Michigan westbound tomorrow (Feb. 27)? Could it end up on train 383 or 385 for the M.C. Sub.?LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 10:55 am11:13 - EB A492 with CN 3812/CN 3008 (IC HU) thru Durand on M2
