Cn 2926/3175 lead 399 by 205 at 1220. Drill pipe right on the head end, Bn ch's, beam car of aluminum rounds, a red rj Corman loaded gon, a killer sponge bob mural on the south side, some carbon black and not a single rack.

251 passed MP 22.5 in the snow at 12:30 pm. The third unit didn't seem to be running.

What I will take as Train 116, by the time and that it had containers, passed MP 22.5 at 2:38 pm with a BNSF unit leading CN 3007. Short train with no autoracks today.

507 passes MP 22.5 at around 6:05 pm.

508 passed MP 22.5 at 7:20 pm. A lot of autoracks front and rear. Just a few containers behind the front autoracks today. Train is out of its usual order.

SB 515 with 5423 and four tank cars just passed MP 22.5 at 7:29 pm. Still to come on the South Holly: returning 513 in a couple hours then Amtrak 352 around 9 pm.

Today on the South Bend Sub we've had:
EB E21681 (E216) from Stevens Point, WI for Flint - If we haven't seen it by now, it might be terminated and the racks added to L500 tonight.
EB M35641 (M356) for Flat Rock - not in BC as of posting
There's another E216, this one E21651 from western Canada, coming as well but it is still in Wisconsin as of this afternoon.

All three trains are empty autoracks for Michigan.

Nice to hear about the 216 symbols and a 356 coming too.

Haven't seen/heard of 216 in a long time. Anybody else too?

That's an old symbol they are using again, well at least right now anyway - hoping it continues.

David, sorry for the delay in responding. MoW was working around MP40 - I know they had scheduled some welded rail replacement at Eveland curve north of Richmond - and that may have been the reason the dispatcher tagged it as OOS this morning. At any rate, it's open again.
