It was on the Holly Subdivision near Moterm. He posted on 251 and 116 right before that.Man o' War wrote: ↑Wed Dec 07, 2022 6:35 pmTwo different CN subs cut across 8 Mile - you'll need to differentiate between the two if your purpose is a "heads up". I'm guessing this time you meant the MTC sub and train M385?

NB passing MP 22.5 at 9:21am with 8803 and 2205. Very mixed freight with only a couple autracks so doesn't look like an early 251.. Maybe this is X491?LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Wed Dec 07, 2022 9:47 pmWe’ve got an X491 out of Flat Rock for BC>Kirk Yard tonight, fyi.

Rolling past MP 22.5 at 3:03 pm. I don't recall seeing the 8000 and 8100 series locomotives on the Holly before. One of the headend cars was a loaded frame car, a very unusual sight on the Holly since the Pontiac Yellow Cab pickup plant was shut down in 2009.

8101 is one of (I believe) 4 SD70ACe's that CN rosters, 8100, 8101, 8102, and 8103 (not sure about 8103). These units are all Ex EMD Demonstrators.Manistique wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 3:04 pmI don't recall seeing the 8000 and 8100 series locomotives on the Holly before.
Re: CN Train Location Updates - December 2022
CN 8100-8103. I remember seeing them on the Holly Subdivision in EMD demo paint. They were repainted in 2015. The 8000 series SD70M-2s have been around since they were delivered.
