OK, FURX 1552 is an MP15DC switcher! Where is this going? :?: What is RS 82? Another switcher? :?: :shock: :shock: :!: Do you have pix of train 399 LansingRailfan?

Good video! LG Gibson sure seems to catch all the trains on the CN Flint Sub. OK, RS 82 is an ex CSX SD70ACe! Why are they purging those units? They should be good for years more! But, where are they going?

It looks like CN's dispatcher let 251 hold up 355's departure in Pontiac. 355 just went by 10 minutes late. No wonder CP got KCS!

I have heard at least 3 train horns thru Linden where I live this afternoon. Didn’t get up to see what they were.
