That quartet of 8800's and train 116 just passed MP 22.5 at 3:18 pm with all autoracks, probably leaving their doublestacks in Pontiac for 508 later today. This is a better arrangement than it replaced but typical railroad operations logic in that 116 will be rolling through Moterm in about ten minutes yet its doublestacks are sitting 15 miles away waiting to be delivered later.

Timely Ghostbusters art on one of the autos for Halloween. I'd watched both movies over the weekend, too.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - October 2022
JT, this is what I wanted to catch!!!! What time did you see it and and where? Also, do we know what numbers these engines were when they were CN C44-9Ws? Well, I may have used one of my three S-VHS camcorders!!!! One Panasonic® AG455™ is working good while the other two (including a Panasonic® AG456™) need some maintenance! I have lots of other S-VHS and VHS parts camcorders too! Most likely I would have photographed these with 35mm and/or 120 film cameras! Yes I like stuff "Old School!!!!"LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Mon Oct 31, 2022 8:02 pmYes but with a VHS CamcorderJ T wrote: ↑Mon Oct 31, 2022 7:25 pmWas this what you were hoping to catch, Robert?Robertrains wrote: ↑Sat Oct 29, 2022 12:49 pm
