CN 2843 is solo by the Bristol Yard office, presumably will lead WB L501 later today.

CN 8906/CN 5441 look to be the power for L514 today as 8906 will lead the run down to MoTerm.

Just post when you actually see the train go by. There is no way it would go from Wyandotte to up near Opdyke Road that quickly. I was waiting for it in Detroit based on your post. Apparently I missed it.

Good lord, my friend SAW IT in Wyandotte and reported it to me, stop thinking I’m inaccurate and/or speculating y’all.
