Through Cass Ave. at 10:44. M382 has generally been a massive train this year so it's surprising to see that the last couple have been on the short side.
Your right, usually around 9,000 to close to 11,000 feet

Train 514 with the two SD60's and a long train of containers just passed MP 22.5 at 8:08 pm.

What I presume was 502 went SB past MP 22.5 at 9:30 pm with two CN's and a short train.

Stopped by the CN Pontiac MI station for about 20 mins this evening. Couple railfan kids there making youtube videos. Amtrak 352 was about 30 mins out as of 9pm. Kids said CN 503 was nearby but switching in the yard. Biked 27 miles from Commerce Charter Twp to Pontiac and back, going along the old Coe Rail aka Michigan Air–Line Railway old ROW.

Not sure what that NB would have been, looks like 384 was the last NB and he is at Burlington Ontario.

You're probably right. I just downloaded ATCS a couple days ago and I'm still getting used to reading it. I probably read it wrong. :lol:
