Re: CN Updates August 2016
L504 or whatever they call the job that services the customers north of the yard at Port Huron is heading into town right now. I didn't see the train, but it sounded like a 4 axle geeps horn (probably a GPR9) when it crossed 32nd Street.
Also, a late update: the same job, same location, same direction on Tuesday had at least 6 boxcars heading into town. I didn't see the power Tuesday either, but it had a very similar sounding horn.

WOW—A CN GP7 ON TRAIN 533!!!! OK, that probably isn't the engine on this train, correct? What was the loco?
Here's a photo of CN GP7 #4803, photo by Mystery 110, Toronto, Ontario, 7-9-2015:

384, CN 3086, is okay from Nolan to Tappan at 2212.
EDIT: CN 3086 and CN 3088 through Mt. Clemens a little bit before 11 p.m. with 140 cars. Definitely smelled like fresh engines.
