19:17 - EB M394 with CN 3206/CN 3269 and IC 2462/CN 2019/BCOL 4623/CN 2424/CN 2008/CN 2003/CN 2005/CN 2037/BCOL 4619/CN 2402/CN 2036/CN 2432/BCOL 4620/CN 2431/CN 2434/CN 2444/CN 2180 now holding at Okemos for WB E251 with CN 3166/CN 8889

M394 will take M2 at Bancroft which means WB X49131 with CN 3198 solo will take M1 at E Durand

Another SB passed MP 22.5 this morning around 4 am. Didn't get up to see it. Sounded like a heavier train than a 280 or 116. Maybe a late running 508?

Amtrak 354 went past a bit later last night. Maybe 2:30 am or 3 am.

23:10 last night, a WB possible X49161 with CN/NS power (off of W311 maybe?) went by the MP 204 Charlotte cam. Looked to be all manifest cars out of Durand possibly.

08:35 - WB P365 arrives in Durand on M2m 35 minutes late. Unfortunately it does not have 18 dead cowls on the rear.

08:38 - WB P365 departs Durand in record time. IDTX 4610/IDTX 4620 is the power, not CSX 911.

08:44 - WB Z149 with CN 2919/CN 3896 thru Durand on M1 - they'll follow WB P365 to Battle Creek.

11:05 - R934 is working the Purina Mill on Millet Hwy with CN 8940. They pulled three covered hoppers from the mill and will add them to a cut of racks they have to take from Snow Yard to Cory Yard. The rear hopper was empty so they left that and are shoving the first two back into the mill.

11:13 - WB Z149 with CN 2919/CN thru Millet HWY after MOW cleared out at Hope. They were working on a switch at EE Snow Yard

508 went past MP 22.5 at 8:15. No containers. Some racks, that cut of NS/SOU/CR 85 foot high cubes that 515 brought to Pontiac today plus another seven car set of the same behind it and a lot of steel cars loaded.
