Yeah, I noticed this as well. Norfolk Southern began installing the other signal heads in November, and those electronic locks were put in around the same time. Seems like they have taken to upgrading their signal system to keep up with CN's upgrades, which are taking place on the Shoreline sub.

First S&HC I ever got. Only video of a BCOL unit doing one, as far as I know.

CN 383 over CP FN at 10:15 a.m. with an SD70M-2 and an SD75I. CN hi-rail trucks at Denby.

371 out of Flatrock Yard at 9:20 am. Currently holding at FN. CN 5681 and 26??

9:30 am: CN 116 SB through FN. BCOL 4644 and CN 5651 with two boxcars for Flatrock.

11:10 am: CN 506 pulled out of Flatrock, then switched over at FN to head SB to Toledo with CN 5347.

3:25 pm-ish; CN SD70M-2 and BC Rail C40-8M leading NB through FN Tower. Most-likely 391.

Strange power move moving up the SB main of the Detroit Line. Solid CSX power, AC4400CW leading, two AC6000s in the center, and a CSX SD70 trailing. All YN2 with quite a bit of crew members on the lead and last units. Don't know where they're headed, but were NB through CP FN around 12:10-ish this ...

490 entered Flatrock around 12:30-ish. I got it on video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXowXbjbMXY I don't know why they moved the caboose, but there has been crazy MOW work in the area, so maybe it will be used in the work. I really have no clue. But I will definitely keep an eye out for it...

490 had CN 2308 and 8890, with GTW caboose 79197 in the third spot, as it entered Flatrock Yard today with 17 cars, mostly racks.

Loaded coal from Toledo (783) holding Just South of FN. CN SD40-2W 53?? and CN SD40-2 5368 as the power.

I heard that CN plans to swap its searchlight signals at Coolidge with LED safetrans this year. Going to assume that this applies to the entire Michigan Division.

384 though FN Tower around 4:40 pm. CN 2572 and 5362.

The EJE SD38 was on 371, passed FN Tower at 11:00 am. today.

Work continues South of McLouth at FN with CN laying rail along the tracks of the Shoreline Sub. There is a piece of MOW equipment sitting on the abutment of the bridge over West Jefferson and King Rd. in Trenton. Talked to a CN conductor about McLouth and the work going on there, and he noted that ...

CN rail train (led by GTW 4908) laying rails along the CN Shoreline Sub, just South of FN Tower at MP 37. A turnout was also brought in on the back of a flatbed, which then drove to the center of FN Tower. The track crew was moving South as of 6:00 pm today and had only a couple pieces of continuous...

4916 went by me at FN Tower in Trenton around 2:00 pm with the loaded rail cars. He crossed over FN towards Toledo, but I do not know if he went all the way to Lang.

They may be starting to take some of the bigger pieces of scrap from the buildings in the complex. I've seen multiple tandem dump trucks come out of McLouth, and they are most-likely hauling scrap. Also, a few massive pieces of steel were transported down King Rd. by trucks. The pieces looked to be ...
