Re: CN Updates - February 2020
Train 251 I presume (running a bit late) is NB passing MP 22.5 at 6:50 pm with a BNSF leading a UP and two CN's, all roaring away to bring the train to the crest of Birmingham Hill. Must be a long train.

CN 2222, 2141, 3835, 3175, & 5757. Yes, A482 with just Sarnia-bound traffic. The rest of the mixed freight consist would be put on a different train in Sarnia to head to Toronto normally...Man o' War wrote:NB manifest through Mount Clemens at 19:25. CN/CN/CN/CN/CN, 94 cars.

Re: CN Updates - February 2020─EJE #657!!!!
OK, we went to Ferndale yesterday afternoon! Saw Amtrak® 350 with "Chargers" locomotives (4625 led) and never heard anything about "EJE 657!!!!"Manistique wrote:I don't know about the EJE locomotive.Robertrains wrote:Manistique wrote:515 had the SD60 today instead of the EJE unit. This is the normal power.
Where is "The J" unit working? Is it just sitting in Pontiac when not on 515? I will keep watch on this page tomorrow Manistique.
Turns out I have a meeting at Church tomorrow morning so I will not be home to watch for 515 for you while there. Sorry.
We left around 4:30 p.m. since it seemed nothing was happening!!!!! Does anyone know what "The J" unit was doing Saturday Feb 15?

Re: CN Updates - February 2020
Dont get all worried - it was still sitting in Pontiac this afternoon. 515 is using the CN 5459 as its primary engine currently.OK, we went to Ferndale yesterday afternoon! Saw Amtrak® 350 with "Chargers" locomotives (4625 led) and never heard anything about "EJE 657!!!!"
We left around 4:30 p.m. since it seemed nothing was happening!!!!! Does anyone know what "The J" unit was doing Saturday Feb 15?
Best chance to see 515 is Monday-Friday. They have a very steady schedule those days.
The rest of the local jobs in Pontiac are usually assigned off the extra board and work well after dark.
