What looked like 251 just passed MP 22.5 on the Holly heading to Pontiac Yard at 3:10 pm. It had two BNSF units as power and maybe a CN trailing.
BNSF 7715/BNSF 4314. If you search for those units on here, both have been making their rounds on CN the last month.

First three units were 3-2-1 on yesterday’s G886 to Durand and BCOL 4651 was 2/2 on yesterday’s L500.

10:28 - EB M302 with CN 2330/CN 8905 thru Charlotte

BNSF 9745 is an exec scheme unit, facing west and should have PTC.

Looks like 251. Passing MP 22.5 at 1:14 pm. Same train that CRD reported a bit earlier at Milwaukee Junction. Amtrak 350 goes through RO closer to 2:00 pm when running on time this summer.
