Probably 507 as it just went past MP 22.5 with two 5700's at 6 pm. Which means no 251 yet today.

A SB 513 with 5430 and two tanks went past at 5:50 pm.

Amtrak 355 went by at 5:35 with only one Charger so the second one that 350 had today was for the spare one in Pontiac I'm guessing.

OK, where is CN taking these "Dead" units? Poor "COWLS" etc. Someone mentioned (Facebook®) that Welland, Ontario K&K place is no longer there! Is there a place to scrap near there? OK, IC 2459 (Heritage Units by CMaguire19) listed this engine in Griffith, IN heading to Gary with four Dash 8s July 27, 7:32 p.m. Maybe this will pass through MI soon! MAN!!!!!

SB 515 went past MP 22.5 at 7:40 am.

Never heard Amtrak 351 go by this morning and the Status feature on their website isn't working for me to check it.
