Got a clear signal for an eastbound through Schoolcraft. Not sure of current location but should be close. That's all the info I can provide as I'm not a frequent railfanner on the CN line.
E marcellus
Sat in Schoolcraft for 30 minutes and nothing showed. The signal was green before I even got there.. for how long I don't know

Cn 5736 solo eb by 205 with stacks/racks at 1438. 116 from the looks of it.
Correction: this was an E274 that set off the stacks for MoTerm and continued on to Port Huron w racks for Toronto.

Haven’t heard whether M394 departed BC EB yet.

E251 should be done working Cory Yard soon j would think. I’d scroll by the 205 cam and look for a WB in the last hour. https://youtu.be/uyqcGTIOMms

Otherwise M397 is probably an hour out.
