No they were having problems with 5854 and was moving slowly, from my understanding 5854 is back running.

Where did they snatch 4912 from? Guess thats what they get for putting that 5854 on the head of this train.kc8bdr wrote:391 is leaving Pontiac.

4912 is the engine that has been getting a lot of use for local trains over the last few weeks. They had been keeping it in the yard at Pontiac between uses.

I am hearing something around Moterm.
Re: CN Updates 12/13/09-12/19/09
148 coming thru Durand now, and what I believe is 490 is between Shaftsburg and Bancroft at the moment. 399 will follow Amtrak 365 out of Flint.

Those along the Flint sub should be advised to look or listen for the Santa train today. It was (possibly still is) sitting in Battle Creek yard this morning. Both IC E-units and three passenger cars.
