LSRC Y101 is heading onto CN trackage at Belsay. They'll head west to interchange once they get clearance across the diamond at Kearsley.

Northbound 251 by Linden at 1:45pm with 782 Axles!! Didn't see the whole train, but if he only had BNSF 6764 and CN 5734 as previously mentioned, that is about 192 cars!!! (Probably had some of those articulated autorack cars so the count may not be 192, but its a BIG train either way).

No domestic containers that I saw on this one. Wb coming out of east yard m2 through town, crossing over to 1 at gord. 365 lined to the station, sounds like they probably passed one at either Walton or lacey.
