X319 tied down in London, Ontario due to some sort of crew member issue. Relief crew is on the way but we won’t see it until mid-afternoon at the earliest here in Lansing.

Cleared Bancroft at 17:29 with only a single auto rack and a flat car for freight.

To anyone who may seek this before they're to work Cory Yard west of Lansing, charge up phones/cameras and clear up for space to record that massive madness.

CN 8952 cannot lead X319 due to its PTC being bad ordered. Most likely wying the power sk it’ll have CN 5600 lead.
