There is a container train at the north end of Pontiac Yard not moving at the moment
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

CN 5766/CN 5742 were from a WB Z147 that terminated in Flint. It had 100 cars and was about 50/50 split between wells and racks.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 9:34 amFour CN locos sitting by yard office along Bristol Road.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - March 2022
CN #5693 leading in what I believe is an E275, is close to arriving to Cory Yard in Lansing. Has two rows to drop off and another two to pick up prior to proceeding.
Via friend, what may have been A491 passing through mp223 East Lansing west at 13:41. Me: It is a likely train to meet an EB between mp208/mp210. The EB (lead by CN #3263) will take M1 at mp208 on arrival to let the WB through.
CN #3263 (confirmed A492) called in to say along their EB path on single track somewhere passed mp197, he had a signal unknown. Signal maintainer informed.
