Makes me wonder if that gigantic warehouse Amazon is building next to Moterm will have rail access.

L533S by Mount Clemens depot at 14:45 with a long string of boxes. This symbol has been working all the way to East Yard lately in order to run around their train for servicing GLR in Fraser. They have also been finding gons filled with what looks to be scrap somewhere down south and taking them back to PH - several times in the past week. Very busy on the MTC during the past 24 hours with 12 trains, including a massive 1 unit NB rack train during the wee hours. SB unit racks are common - NB, not so much...

WB Q147 with CN 3895 solo clear Trowbridge at 16:51 - about a dozen cars that looked to be WB freight set off for customs issues in Port Huron as well as some of those Chrysler auto parts boxcars from L533 all on the tail end.

Long cut of empty wells in the middle too.

Now EB CSX L305 will cross the diamond.
