Ok, so now that's the second time I have read about A482 on the Mt. Clemens sub and I have to ask.

What is this train? Does M382 still run?

Also...heard the dispatcher talking to train 491 this morning. What train is this and where does he run? (I think there was a 491 that ran on the Holly Sub recently for a short time).

Thanks.

A482 runs from Lang Yard to Sarnia. M382 still runs.

Appears like A482 passes through Wyandotte normally around 7:30 AMish.

Southbound by Linden at 12:44pm with CN 2865. Not sure the car count or what train it is - must have been a short one because I missed it. (Heard him on the scanner).

This one might be going SB past MP 22.5 right now at 6 pm. So far all autoracks. Two CN's as power. I presume it is following Amtrak 355 down the Hill though I just got home.

482 is now the Toledo to Sarnia train. 382 now originates in Sarnia. 491 replaced 505 late last year. Sarnia to Kirk. Now has an EB counterpart in 492. 398 has been abolished. 500 and 501 are running between Flint and Battle Creek. 394, 396, 397, 399, 148, and 149 still run across the Flint Sub. As do 116, 251, 401, and 402 and 514 on the Holly.

According to the wiki, there is/was an M393 that runs daily between Toronto and West Chicago. Was that one abolished?

I haven't heard of a 393 coming west across Michigan in maybe a few months or so? And when they did come last year, they tended to have an X393 symbol. But maybe there's a regular 393 that still runs in Ontario, I'm not sure.

Short Northbound just cleared the detector at 59.9 a few minutes ago - 168 on the Axle Count.

Should be in Durand by now as I type this. This time of night should be Northbound 514.
