Re: CN Train Location Updates - December 2022
SB Train 515 just went past MP 22.5 on the Holly with 5456 again at 7:54. A lot of boxcars for Chrysler Mount Clemens.
I too wonder at the logic of extending 515's run all the way to Mount Clemens. That is a long ways by railroad track from Pontiac Yard. There must be politics or union stuff involved with this, though railroad logic is not always our logic.

Z149 west clear mp220 at 09:56. CN duo #5664 + #2606 with a funky writing of it at least on north-facing side.
Edit: 2606 was the trailing unit. Not 2608. Per friend's live recording on south-facing side of how I saw it, the number didn't look fixed/corrected as it does on the north-facing side. I didn't get pics or videos of it.
