Re: CN Updates January 2021
Well I won't be able to get it! Sounds like the BCOL unit was not "Cowl" unit (Full Wide)! That would be a GE C44-9W then!KC8RBK wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 4:16 pmLooks like its about the 257 dd lined down the main, crossing over at flint to me with a route to e flint.

Re: CN Updates January 2021
Cool, another BCOL "Cowl" today!!!! Too dark though! Now, are these locos expected to come north on the Mt. Clemens Sub. tomorrow night? Or will they likely end up on the Holly Sub? Man I want to catch some "Active Cowls!!!!"MtClemensRailFan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 7:17 pmA485 through New Haven @ 19:01. CN 5616 & BCOL 4605 with 95 cars moving at track speed.
