CN 2297, 2010, and CSXT 8541 on 385.
CN 2675 and 2021 on 391.
*385 is running the long way because of track work on the Mt. Clemens Subdivision. Wednesday's 385 also ran via Ponitac with CN 2575 and BNSF 4823.

390/L504 left Port Huron about 1245 for Canada. CN 5770/8804 and 26 cars.
360 waiting for 390/504 to back(?) into the yard then will be heading for track 1 in Port Huron.
If you don't mind the wind and the rain, it's not too bad up here today...

360 has CN 8023/2028/2534. F/R/R. No DPUs, and appears to be mostly DOT111As. The newer kind, not the hated old ones.

385 is at Port Huron with CN 2843/9574. F/R. Noted a block of new looking FURX covered hoppers in their consist.
393 may be next to come through the tunnel. Sounds like 396 may be in the area too.
360 should be somewhere to the west, as it appeared to be leaving PH a short tine ago.

I photographed this train southbound through Fraser at 5:29 p.m. I thought the lead unit is CN ES44DC #2343 (not 2843) and CN GP40-2LW #9574! It had 139 cars!
Those FURX cars were nice, built 10-2014 too!!!!

2343 is what they were calling on the TA. Probably misread it when I posted earlier.
L505 is apparently going west from Port Huron. Where does it go?
384 just into the tunnel, 2010 was the second (of 2) unit.
396 sounded to be preparing to head into the tunnel about 10:50, just after I headed for home.
Amtrak was at West Tappan just after 11:00. Depending on how quickly they made it through the yard, they should have been at the station by 11:15, probably more like 11:10.
