As of 3am,NS 63T was pulling into Rouge track 5 with the NS 87xx lead.I have no idea what they were doing but it was too cold to wait around..LV60 waited on them before heading lite engine to Livernois.

NS 69V loaded coil train from rouge south through Wyandotte around 1am..CN 2701 solo power..Speed 28,286 axles.Alot of weight for one unit in my opinion and it really showed as the C44-9W was struggling.

NS 331 South through Wyandotte around 140am.Union pacifc 4930 for solo power..mark up was 15x10

NS 414 loaded coke and NS 178 met at Northline in Wyandotte around 2am and i was in between them. NS 414 has NS 9472,NS 9109,and BNSF 5895..,Speed 18 ,Axles 366....87 loads

NS 178 has NS 9358,NS C40-9W,and CSXT C40-8W in the gray scheme..Speed 39...Axles 214

NS 415 South through Wyandotte right around 3am..NS 9490,NS 8425,WLE 3034,and WLE 3068.Both in the full Black and orange Wheeling scheme :) Speed 36,Axles 456...108 emptys
