New normal for the wolverine. I’ve been told the trains are getting so packed that MDOT had Amtrak put the extra car on.

:shock: Whoa, a single BNSF engine!!!! :shock: What model and/or engine number is this? Is it an ES44AC or C44-9W? Could it be an SD70ACe? :?: This "Video Still" is hard to make out, even on my large 22" computer screen!!!! I see the orange and yellow stripes! It is a BNSF "Swoosh" which means it is probably a newer engine! Not many C44-9Ws have this paint! Why does the image look so smudgy? :?: I didn't think it was like this! I have seen videos from this webcam before and I don't remember it looking like this! :wink:

One more I regret not going out for. One I did see however was Z148, thru MP 225 at 22:54. No numbers but intermodal and racks led by a 1st gen GEVO and a 5700 series unit, maybe 5724.

I think it was just a GEVO. Typical for E280 to have a single leader BNSF GEVO.

515 NB by Opdyke at 1:14…at least I think it’s 515. Just going off the horn and that it sounds like an SD60.

A CN stack/auto rack train with SD70M-2 8854 leading was seen arriving into Bristol yard in flint at around 0700. Currently leaving flint to head for Port Huron as of 0830. Is this Q122 or a late Z148? Also a westbound is sitting on the main between MP 270 and MP 263
