Solid autoracks with a gon & a couple of boxcars at the end.

The numbers have changed but that's basically how they ran every day before 2020. The all rack train would be through Lansing late afternoon or early evening and then the freight with all the empty lumber cars on the head end would show up around midnight. That one often met 116 at Durand

03:48 clear Elkhart depot CP421 with a fresh crew aboard.

I've been watching the Chesterton cam for a couple of hours, didn't think about Elkhart. Been a pretty good night on the Chicago Line.

Heading to Owosso area on Friday morning the 24th from Muskegon. Any info on catching something within an hour drive of Owosso would be much appreciated. We would like to do a little offshoot exploring between catching some 1225 action.

In general I would think Durand is your best bet.
