Loaded Consumers coal drag had BNSF 8892 and 5950 leading with Exec green 9668 bringing up the back end e/b thru BC a while ago. Another e/b freight with SF war bonnet BNSF 8241 followed it into the yard a few minutes ago.

[bctrainfan]

E/b mixed freight arrived in Battle Creek yard with all NS power, a shiny 8858 leading 9457. Thought it was an NS reroute on the Michigan line when i first saw it going thru downtown! But it stayed on CN so I assume its just a CN train with foreign power.

Also GTW 4901 4906 4909 4920 4927 all doing yard duties.

Saw a single unit southbound on Mt. Clemens Sub around noonish a couple miles north east of Smith's Creek. Looked to be an SD75i running long hood forward, but I was about a mile away and it was snowing. I'm guessing it was 529 and wasn't taking anything south out of Port Huron, but I wasn't able to catch up.
