Just noticed a new thread for October wasn't started. Anyone catch the color train out of Cadillac to Boyne Falls this week-end? I absently-minded posted the information under September.

LSRC 127 has 3095 and what I assume is 3100 trailing. Still a loaded coal train in Flint, as well.

As of about 20 minutes ago, a southbound Grand Elk train was near milepost 70 getting a track warrant from 70 south as for as roughly milepost 30. WAMX 4124 leading. The dispatcher told them she was still going to have to talk them by CP-Park.
