Re: CN - April 2017
It looks like one of the Mt Clemens Sub locals just crossed Range Road with 2 loaded centerbeam lumber cars. GP38 leading, I think

Re: CN UPDATEZ - April 2017
Today, 4-2, I went to the MTM station, Mt. Clemens!!!! I photographed southbound train 533 with CN C44-9W #2586 and nine loaded "Well Car" sets, 3:04 p.m. Later, local 524 came with CN painted GTW GP38-2 #4900, reversed ends of four empty "Center Beam" flatcars, headed north after 4 p.m. It will soon meet train 385 at "North Haven" (per scanner at home around 4:45)! I may go get that one on my bike!!!!
EDIT 5:18 P.M. : Train 385 is passing "Haven" heading south with CN 2266 (local 524 is about to head north)

Re: CN - April 2017
Well turns out a second train was on the heals of 116 tonight. This train cleared the detector at 12:33 AM with 270 axels. I have not picked up any engine or train numbers. I am guessing this was a 280.

Re: CN - April 2017
Yes, I missed putting that in my post. The second eastbound was all autorack pulled by UP 4761 solo, so definitely looked like a 280.
There was another eastbound that I heard hit the detector at Lansing about 00:40, but did not see.
Have not heard or seen anything else.
