Bnsf 5433 lhf running light wb by 205 at 0720. Running extremely slow as they usually do. It took him several minutes to get here from the 206.3 dd. I didnt hear his speed there just that it gave a report and 6 axles. I'd estimate 10-12mph. I know they have to run restricted speed due to lack of ditch lights. One of you will know better exactly how slow that is.

I want to say it’s something like 10mph... it’s painfully slow at any rate.KC8RBK wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 7:23 amBnsf 5433 lhf running light wb by 205 at 0720.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - November 2020
Around 3:20 Monday I recorded a small portion of a BNSF coal train at mp215. 9135+5932 at front with only a small fraction of coal cars to Delta yard while the rest plus an end DPU were kept on the Delta siding. Never saw it pass your stream nor see anything of it here, so I wonder if that 5433 was the very DPU I didn't see well (saw it from a distance at Cory)KC8RBK wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 7:23 amBnsf 5433 lhf running light wb by 205 at 0720.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - November 2020
Southbound by Linden at 5:04pm with 60 axles. I am working from home in the basement now (moved from our master bedroom to the basement because the bedroom was becoming not practical and it looks like I will be wfh for another 6 months at least). Anyway, nobody cares about that...
I assume this train is 514, but don't know and didn't get up to run upstairs to look. The best view, and really the only view is from the upstairs window looking South with binoculars, so now if I see a train while working, I have to run up 2 sets of stairs. Oh well, its good exercise I guess.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - November 2020
This morning’s 482 was yesterday’s version. The one this evening is today’s, as CN is trying to play catch-up from the storms on Sunday.Man o' War wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 5:31 pmA482 by Mount Clemens depot at 17:10. 5 units, including a fairly clean zebra (cowl). M384 at Flat Rock.

CN 5469 and 5433 went around the High Wyein Durand and are heading south down the Holly Sub at 3:48pm. No cars, just light power, but I’m assuming it’s 514.
