GTW 4916 (GT blue) Leading
EJ&E 661
GTW 5930 (CN Paint).
Where did EJ&E 661 end up?


About all I know is it went to Flint on 514. I don't know if it stayed there or moved on.

Train 391 NB past MP 22.5 with IC 1017 as sole power at 8:25 pm. Amtrak 353 right behind him at 8:35 pm. Looks like the slow order is done out back.

385, CN 3059, is clear of Nolan. 533, CN 5438, sounds like was having problems with one of the cars. 384 is on the approach to Avery (not sure where that is). Sounds like 384 was struck by a car, but was told to keep rolling since they weren't told about it right away. Fun evening on the rails today. :P

533 is okay from Nolan to Tappan at 2106.

EDIT at 9:23: 384, CN 2294, will be following right behind 533 once they are around the Jct. and heading north.

According to a post from 2016 by ConrailDetroit, Avery is where new crossovers were added on the Shoreline sub southwest of the Detroit Amtrak station.

Amtrak 351 was about 50 minutes late departing Pontiac this morning.

What looked like a Train 280 SB past MP 22.5 at 7:45 am. Mostly autoracks with some mixed freight in the middle. Just like a 451 but the other way.

I caught what might be a train 280 at Williams Lake Rd. at 6:50 AM.
CN 8931
CN 5636

almost all autoracks, but there were about 25-30 mixed cars mid train, half of them were loaded center beams.
