I never saw 116 go by the house today. Last I heard it was in Waterford a long time ago. Must have somehow missed it.

507 went by MP 22.5 at 6:20 pm with two CN and a nice sized train with containers on the rear.

508 went by at 6:40 pm with one 8800 and a shorter train with covered steel cars on the head end and plenty of open coiled steel scattered throughout and no containers tonight.
