OK, train 394! LansingRailfan, is the power from this train expected to come back to MI soon? It would be great to catch CN "IC Heritage" ET44AC #3008 again! Yes I caught it last August 18th leading train 382! Now the paint was freshened up for the "Officer's Special" a few weeks ago! Same with CN "EJ&E Heritage" ET44AC #3023!!!! I will be on the lookout for northbound train 382 with that "J" engine leading! I may be able to catch it if it runs this afternoon!!!! YESS!!!!! 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲

There is a train sitting on the main in Pontiac Yard. All I can see are auto racks. I don’t see any engines or know which direction it’s going.

Edit departed by noon
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...
