Well, per "Heritage Units," looks like train 383 south had IC SD70 #1020 and IC GP40R #3115! Both "Black!!!!" Spotted in Warren (by HeritageUnitFoamer), 4:56 p.m. :shock: Well, there's a good train to catch!!!! Hey GTW6401, did you catch this train? Wow I was at home eating! Will these Illinois Central® units come back north on the Mount Clemens Subdivision tomorrow, Thursday 1-27? Hopefully I will catch IC 3115 leading!!!!!!!! :shock:
The train I photographed had CN 5772 and 2608.

Illinois Central stuff should have been on 533.
Do we know what happened? Now the posts on "Heritage Units" are gone!!!! Were they fake? :?: On January 23 "HU" showed IC 1024 SD70 leading CN SD70ACe #8100 on train A484! That one seems correct, which shows those locos went through Charlotte the next day! Were there any other "Black" IC units on the Mt. Clemens Sub. recently? Sometimes "Bogus" trains show up that don't even exist! MAN!!!! HeritageUnitFoamer showed only three recorded posts. :roll: :roll:

Seems kinda strange but a cn pickup is driving east down the grade by 205 plowing snow. I don't think I've ever seen them do that before. I wonder if they're planning on needing access for some sort of maintenance or if he's bored.
