Hey guys, I saw a Zebra SD40-2W #5248 leading L514 SB by Opdyke on Saturday, Hard to tell but is the 5248 still on it?

You saw CN 5246 and yes, it’s still on it.

That power set doesn’t change often.

This train is OD at 1:00 PM every day. I caught it yesterday leaving the yard In Flint and headed west at 2:08 PM.
