CN Train Location Updates - May 2023

Unread post by LansingRailFan »

21:12 - WB X393 with CN 2321/CN 5669 thru Mishawaka, IN. This was the power from the M371 we had into Battle Creek.

Also, a BNSF 6994 led another E270 thru Mishawaka, IN at 21:53. E27092-01

The first E270, E27091-01, with BNSF 7145/BNSF 8206, went by the 205 cam at 22:00. They changed the symbol in BC to L542. The crew worked Cory Yard, spotting empties and pulling loaded racks.

CN’s OCS train ran today from Homewood to Kirk Yard. P52591 01.

They will run Kirk-Woodcrest-Kirk tomorrow and the same Wednesday. CN 3023/CN 3008 are the power, elephant style.

Interestingly enough, the CN 25th IPO logos on the front/side of the engines have been removed.

Train will be full of investors etc…
