Amtrak 350 had a Charger on each end as it passed a few minutes ago.

Probably 507 as it just went past MP 22.5 with two 5700's at 6 pm. Which means no 251 yet today.
A SB 513 with 5430 and two tanks went past at 5:50 pm.
Amtrak 355 went by at 5:35 with only one Charger so the second one that 350 had today was for the spare one in Pontiac I'm guessing.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - July 2023
OK, where is CN taking these "Dead" units? Poor "COWLS" etc. Someone mentioned (Facebook®) that Welland, Ontario K&K place is no longer there! Is there a place to scrap near there? OK, IC 2459 (Heritage Units by CMaguire19) listed this engine in Griffith, IN heading to Gary with four Dash 8s July 27, 7:32 p.m. Maybe this will pass through MI soon! MAN!!!!! IC "Heritage Units" 2459 link: https://heritageunits.com/locomotive/detail/IC2459
Man my "Brown 40" B-day is tomorrow, Friday, July 28!

Never heard Amtrak 351 go by this morning and the Status feature on their website isn't working for me to check it.
