LansingRailfan, what BNSF locomotive is leading train E280? Is this one to Flat Rock down the Holly Subdivision?

Re: CN Train Location Updates - May 2023
Well, missed this one! It would be nice to see CN "GTW Heritage" SD70M-2 #8952 leading! It probably will be late tomorrow night on northbound train 384!!!! Though sometimes when they run 385 early (like today), the following night's 384 would be earlier! It'd be nice if it came back through Fraser with enough daylight!!!!
Here is a video of this train without the usual "Truck Chassis" in New Haven, MI, 5-7-23 (©BK-CNrailfan): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsIz6cpRC1g

Re: CN Train Location Updates - May 2023
Wait guys! Did 385 truly have the "GTW Heritage" on it? Why did it take so long to get to Detroit? I think the earlier one reported was actually train 383! It had no "Truck Chassis" and came in the morning like 383 usually does!!!! LansingRailfan/bnsfben!
EDIT: Yes it was train 385 since it went to Flat Rock!!!!

Extra 251 went past MP 22.5 on the Holly around 5:30 pm and was slowing down to let Amtrak 355 depart Pontiac. So much for a two track mainline through here.
