I would guess. It past me east bound this morning at about 3 am on 332. I guess it sat in Battle Creek all day.
Mark it Zero.

I just saw Oil Special CN U-711 pass westbound by me. Only 1 buffer car on the front, didn't catch the rear. 2 CN units up front also, no BNSF power this time around. Train has green light to at least Lansing. Steve

The intermocal local just went south through Chesterfield (Mt Clemens Sub) led by SD70somethingorother and 30ish platforms (about 50% mty). It appears to be running quite late as its supposed to arrive at Moterm before 8am IIRC.
