Yes this was L508David Lang wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2024 2:35 pmWell, well, well, we have another Southbound. Southbound 508?, by Linden at 2:33pm with 2 CNs and 40 cars of mixed freight. If this is not an early or late 508, maybe it’s an extra like a 356 or something.

Clear signal for a westbound at Trowbridge at 8:21pm.
M301 by Trowbridge at 8:38 with CN 3051 and CN 3837 up front. Large cut of brand new richardson (WFRX reporting mark) covered hoppers about half way in, could still smeel the paint drying!

21:26 - Amtrak eastbound by MP 225 on Main 2.
21:35 - On M1 headed east was a manifest led by 5484. I'm told this is L500.

Re: CN Train Location Updates - January 2024
OK, I did go to Pontiac Sunday! There wasn't time for trains, visited friends! Now, I did view Pontiac Yard! Yes "Blue" GTW GP38-2 #4906 still based here and CN SD60 #5447! Well, what trains does GTW 4906 work? I am hoping it will come back to train 515 soon!!!!!Robertrains wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 4:16 pmWhat is the current local power in Pontiac? Is "Blue" GTW GP38-2 #4906 still based here? If so, what train(s) and what times would it be operating? That engine appears not to go on train 515 anymore! I will be in Pontiac tomorrow (Sunday 1-21)!

NB 515 with 5447 and eight cars, mostly covered hoppers, just passed MP 22.5 at 2 pm.
Amtrak 350 out of Chicago: "As of 9:57 am CT, Train 350 is currently operating approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes late due to further delays due to mechanical issues." IYIYIYIYI.
And 352 out of Chicago has the red flag "Service Disruption, stay tuned."
