SB M356 departed Fon Du Lac, WI at 17:45 eastern with CN 2999/CN 2128/BCOL 4604/BCOL 4611. Those three were the last three -8s in storage in Symington Yard, Winnipeg, MB heading for scrap in Chicago.
Chicago Heights Processing on the UP has been the buyer for the last round of -8s that were stored in Winnipeg, Iowa and Battle Creek

Had these two engines, 121 cars, cleared Masonic Road at 1:34 p.m. Good to see a "Fresh" former CN C44-9W, now AC44C6M leading!!!! What was the previous engine number of 3342 before re-building (if anyone knows)?
Is there an online list of how many were rebuilt and numbers/former numbers?
This was nice!!!!!

Re: CN Train Location Updates - January 2024
OK, I missed this just by a couple minutes!!!! I quickly rode my bike from my new house in Fraser! I went to Masonic Road to cross the pedestrian bridge, but it was already going! Just three cars! Now, if I left 2 minutes earlier I could have made it! OK, sometime next week I should get this train! Hopefully "Blue" GTW GP38-2 #4906 will still be on it! 515 is usually longer on weekdays! This is the first time since 2020 that a "Blue" GTW unit has made it to a local on the Mt. Clemens Subdivision!!!!Graham Halverson wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 8:48 amFlying Eagle TV wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 8:09 am515 should be leaving Pontiac right now…anyone know what’s on it today?
