Wb by 205 at 0520 with a duck wedged in its horn. I didn't look outside to see what it was. For me cn has the worst sounding horns of the different roads. The newer units are good but Manu of the older horns sound fouled. I think there might be a pun in there :lol:

WB L501 with BNSF 7822 solo through Durand on M2 at 06:58.

It's clear MP218 as of 08:06 and should be stopping to work Snow Yard.

Earlier, an EB Z148 with CN/BNSF for power went thru Lansing. They met this L501 at Okemos.

WB P365 was on time for its station stop in Durand at 08:05.

There is an engine at the scrap yard on the Pontiac belt line. 5436 pulling one gondola. Rather than take the wye and go engine first to Pontiac Yard, the pulled straight across Baldwin Jct. and are backing to the yard.
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...

14:00

WB 3-unit M399-12 with IC 1002/IC 1008/CSX 7207 f/f/r - departed Port Huron

WB A491 at Durand

In BC:
EB E274
EB A492
EB M394

Due in later today to BC:
EB M302
EB M396

14:50 - @ Durand on M2...The earlier E274 (solo CN 2988) was actually an E276. We are seeing these more frequently out of Chicago as CN has picked up some incremental loaded rack business to Eastern Canada that has resulted in them being able to run E274s and E276s from Chicago.
