DS is talking (yes, I have my scanner on for the first time in years) to a Train 765 in Pontiac at 10:30 am. So we will maybe see if that is the Sand Train like I suspect is its number (though that is a NB number and I may not see it go by, though doesn't seem to make any difference anymore as to direction). DS also seemed to be talking to two BNSF locomotives in Pontiac about running light to Durand soon. Maybe power from 765?

C765 is the number that CN uses for trains of coal empties west out of Durand. Power can come from either Flint or Pontiac. I believe there is one last string of empties in Durand Yard from HESR. This might be the train that is going to finally pick up those empties and take them away.

Action on the Holly at 3:22 pm: Train 251 with two CN's is NB on Main 2 and as it was passing MP 22.5 returning NB train 515 with 5435 was flying past it (same direction) on Main 1. Amtrak 350 had two P-42's today and no Chargers.

That may have been the 765 that was discussed earlier
