Seeing some (non-railfan) facebook posts regarding a stalled or stopped train blocking 28 Mile Rd on the Mt Clemens Sub. One post with apparent inside information says train likely to be stopped til tomorrow morning, due to a "long list of things going on in its path to the north." No idea which train, what power, why stopped, etc.

It must be 384 or 484, whichever it is called now.

Yah. So that 384 was most likely staged there at Haven because they could store cars.

There's derailment on CN west of Chicago, Sarnia yard is a mess and everything's covered in snow. Things are backlogged right now.

Running what they got. L500 I believe.

M394 is OD in Battle Creek at 7:15.
E260 is after that.

E251 is WB at Shaftsburg.

A450 is EB, working Cory Yard.

Supposedly flood gates have opened in Chicago and we should see a ton of trains tonight into tomorrow.
