indeed Steven, thank you...301 and 302 are Toronto-Vancouver trains and are sometimes rerouted south of the great lakes. I forgot about 279, have they ran lately? And according to railroads illustrated 371 was cancelled in favor of 399 operating again. it could have been resurrected again i could be wrong...darn things sure change quick!

I caught 490 going thru Birmingham at 3:15 this afternoon. CN 5771 and 5603 with no stacks on the tail end.

[CharlieX90]

490 on the shared

391 at FN

[GTWChris]

Didn't get the number, might have been a foreman, but something is working between West Pontiac and South Andersonville.

[CharlieX90]

391 has work at Moterm..Two CN units for power..i didn't get the loco numbers but they were either SD70 or SD75I's

SD70I's you mean? but most likely they would be 75I's.

yeah..thats what i meant lol

[GTWChris]

GTW 4902 is heading out of Pontiac(I think) and will have to hold at MAL for Amtrak.

[GTWChris]

GTW 4902 is currently between Moterm and East Yard and will be bringing one car back to Pontiac. 391 also just called TD2 reporting to be at Yellow Cab.

[GLC 392]

slow night in Durand but had a westbound with a CN dash 9 BCOL 4611, CN dash 8 and LLPX 1515 GP15

[RailCanon]

301 and 302 aren't currently running on the Flint Sub. I think they were rerouted across Ontario again. It's been quite a while since I've seen or heard 251, 276 or 279. I don't believe either of these trains are operating at the moment.
Come to think of it, the UP unit trains (260, 280, etc) seem to have up and disappeered all of a sudden as well...
Also, 148 and 149 are Montreal-Chicago trains.

[GTW6401]

383 is coming up to Mount Clemens, with 386 waiting for them at Nolan before they head north.

104 and 524 are both working tonight, with 104 at East Yard.

There is also another local that came off the Holly at Milwaukee Junction that is at East Yard.

[AARR]

Last night around 6:30pm, saw a westbound on the Holly Sub going by Eastown Dist.

[RailCanon]

490 is around Lansing right now with CN 2416 in the lead, I think.

[Russ Hill]

490 heading to Moterm. May be held at Royal Oak to let Amtrak 355 go by.
New policy. No delays to Amtrak.

[GTWChris]

490 has the CN 2416 and CN 2505 for power they went through Birmingham at 5 mph to let Amtrak pass.
