501 is working in the Pontiac yard then pull up to Scott Lake Rd. to e-crew before heading north.

I missed catching it in Pontiac but hope to see it roll by at Williams Lake.

391 was CN 8010 and 5706.

490 was going by Milwaukee Junction at 7:25pm. CN 5613 and 2547.

144 had CN 2588, and wyed the power at Milwaukee Junction a little before 490 arrived there.

Heard a 782 down at South Chapman. CN 2620 was leading.
