CN Updates- August 2019

[KC8RBK]

NB Train 514 went past MP 22.5 around 7:30 pm.

Either a late Train 371 or possibly Train 391 with three CN's, the middle a cowl, is NB passing MP 22.5 at 8:28 pm. Looks like 371 as it is largely autoracks.

L533N preparing to leave Mount Clemens at 19:55 with BCOL 4606. Crew must have drawn the short straw today, and gets to run 35 miles to PH long hood forward with a cowl. Unit is also making strange noises and sounds like it could blow all to hell at any time...

Two SB's went past MP 22.5 this morning before light.

One was at 5 am and it was a long one. Maybe 116 that was reported past Charlotte earlier?

The second was at 6 am. A shorter one. Maybe that 280 autorack train that was reported earlier at Charlotte? This one beat Amtrak 350 out of Pontiac (or delayed 350), which followed it down the hill about ten minutes late.

Amtrak 353 is running late departing Pontiac. It still hasn't passed my house and it is about 45 minutes overdue at 10:28 am.
