There is a pair of north bounds on the Mt. Clemens Subdivision between Nolan and Haven.

The first has the CN 2684 leading, and the other is at East Yard with the CN 8833 leading. CN 2684 is 384, and CN 8833 is 144.

It could be 371, although I usually see it later in the afternoon.

It wasn't 502. This was going north, not south.

Process of elimination then,

It wasn't 950 because I saw them go north around 5:15pm.

513 has GTW 4623 and 4906, so if it wasn't those engines it must have been 391.
