A local out of Pontiac with 5450 and just a few cars (box, tanks and one loaded centerbeam) went SB past MP 22.5 on the Holly at 1:30 pm.
Returned to Pontiac Yard around 6:15 pm with a few boxcars and a few empty centerbeam. Let's call it a Saturday 515.

385 at Woodward Aveune in Detroit. CN 2337, IC 2715 and CN 2534.
MtClemensRailFan, Michael Awe caught this train at Common too! Maybe you are one and/or the same!!!!! Saw his video on Facebook®! :wink: 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 :wink:
I was actually on my bicycle and at 13 Mile crossing and captured it there!!! Good catch with CN 2222!!!! I like those first ES44DC engines with the regular "Red Marker Lights" where they should be! I wish all the D.P.U.s had these lights like this! I don't like the single red lamp near the Ditch Lights!!!! :roll: 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 :roll: The order from early 2006 has numbers 2220 to 2254! Also got southbound 385 in the afternoon, Mt. Clemens, with fellow friend "Mazon!!!!" Yup, three CN engines, 148 cars! 😉 :wink:

WB Z149 is working Cory Yard, possibly dumping those autoracks there.

An EB M356 arrived in BC around noon. Unsure if it’s going past BC.
