He had 2 CN locomotives, but didn't catch the numbers. I can once again see trains from my upstairs window as the farmer has cut the tall corn field and I can see across the way again.
The "could have" been 116 without intermodal cars, but I think it was 280.

Re: CN Updates October 2021
This was M397. A drunk driver drove into it at the S. Washington Ave crossing in Downtown Lansing and that’s what caused the P364 to be delayed for over 2 hours. The car bounced off of the train and took out the signal and gate. Driver walked out unscathed.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 10:31 am10/16 - 22:49 - WB 3-unit mixed freight with a lot of loaded lumber throughout by the 205 cam

Re: CN Updates October 2021
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.
