Just a heads up that M384 and M385 were changed to A484 and A485. They run a lot later at night. Typically around 3 pm a short northbound manifest heads out of Flat Rock. Which is L507

17:00 - WB M399 with CN 3293/UP 7786 by the Charlotte SteelHighways cam
17:25 - WB E251 with CN 3236/CN 5699/CN ex-CItirail 2788/CN 5778/CN 3063 by the Charlotte SteelHighway cam after making a large pickup in Cory Yard
Here is E251 in Lansing before it worked Cory Yard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SxrDdNkHbo

17:46 - EB M394 with CN ex-Citirail 3964 (with ptc)/CN 2845 and mid DPU CP 8559 meetings WB X273 with CN 8102 solo - M394 on M2 and X273 on M1
today's E251 made a big pickup of racks from Cory today and X273 was routed to Lansing. GM finally got the go from the EPA to ship the 2024 Chevy Traverse so we should see a lot of racks moving out of Lansing in the next week. I can't wait since I totaled my car last month and have had a new Traverse on order since insurance paid it off.

CN Grain Train heading westbound through Durand. CN 3122 and 3036 are leading
2 locomotives came out of Flint yard light power, took the Port Huron Wye into Durand yard. They coupled up and pulled the train south on the Holly sub to shove back through the High Wye to face westbound.
