251 by the Fort St cam at 10:30 CN+ex-CITI
Currently stopped
Some police action in view, probably unrelated to train.
251 will probably look like this tomorrow, as 116 has the same line up.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - November 2023
OK! Looks like my friend Roger (with my lent 35mm Canon® S.L.R.) probably cannot make it to PH in time to capture this! He lives in Casco, but slept in! Where is this train now (after 11 a.m.)? Does it have a straight shot, or is it waiting for other trains in a siding? Well, this train is cool! Is Via® replacing older equipment with these? Seems like they have been doing this in the Montréal, Quebec area! Will the Siemens® equipment come to the Toronto to Windsor corridor? I can imagine someday! Though I don't want to see Via® F40PH units and/or older Budd® passenger cars going away!!!!LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Sat Nov 04, 2023 10:35 amDeparted Flint at 09:15.

Cn 8805 leading a492 has a busted horn. Sounds like they're stopping or slow rolling each crossing on the way to flint where the power will be swapped out. Unsure on location currently. I got busy with something delaying my posting of the info

I’m sure we’ll see UP 5476 come back on a WB manifest.
