2881 west is waiting for 116 at Cedar.
8883 west worked at Cory.
Either 8883 or 8008 west was train 491. Does 491 work Cory?

8883 was L501. The BNSF units in fact were in flint (I must have missed em on my recon) and that train they went east on Was in fact an E260. I have corrected my original post.Dan Cluley wrote: ↑Wed Jan 12, 2022 11:02 pm2881 west is waiting for 116 at Cedar.

Overnight 205 cam review
01/12/2022
21:51 - WB 2-unit CN/CN f/f mixed freight
22:18 - EB 2-unit NS/NS f/r mixed freight/racks/coils - maybe 30-35 cars total
22:49 - EB 2-unit Q116 CN 2233/CN 2547 f/f with a few racks on the head and the rest stacks
23:25 - WB 2-unit CN/CN f/r mostly lumber and autoracks like Dan mentioned above
23:46 - WB 2-unit X301 CN/CN f/f mixed freight
01/13/2022
00:45 - WB 2-unit M397 with CN/KCS
01:23 - WB 2-unit E251 with IC 1030/BNSF
02:00 - EB 2-unit E260 auto racks with NS/NS f/r - maybe 50 cars for Bristol Yard
02:25 - EB 2-unit Z148 with CN/CN39** ex-CREX leaser
06:01 - WB 2-unit Z149 with CN/CN f/r
07:25 - WB 3-unit Ns/NS/CN 5431 and 31 or so cars - all auto racks aside from 2 or 3 86' autoparts boxcars. - This was the power from that earlier E260 that went to Flint. It also has CN 5431 which was on the yard track by the office earlier in the day.
For the record, I found no BNSF units on a WB. Could they have been dropped at Cory or Snow to power a WB C711?

Pontiac south local departed an hour ago. It had its usual string of loaded center beams and a couple tank cars on the rear.
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...

Re: CN Train Location Updates - January 2022
Another WB is lined out of Flint Yard thru Durand - most likely A491 or an intermodal.
Re: CN Train Location Updates - January 2022
22:18 was A450. Q116 terminated in Pontiac. Power went south on L507, stacks went south on A450.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 10:04 am22:18 - EB 2-unit NS/NS f/r mixed freight/racks/coils - maybe 30-35 cars total

NS/NS now on E251. Milwaukee Jct at 11:20.
Presumably NB L507 will continue onwards as X507(X401?).

Re: CN Train Location Updates - January 2022
The last two cars of the northbound manifest are blocking Johnson St (south end of Pontiac yard)
It’s led by 2 NS and 1 CN units
It has a block of trash cars on the headend
