No stop in Pontiac for 251. Occasionally they’ll do a crew swap with 116 but I don’t think that’s happening today.David Lang wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2024 12:53 pmThanks FerndaleBuck.

Re: CN Train Location Updates Sept 2024
NB through Ferndale just now. I only caught the last 8-10 cars out of the corner of my eye. All racks and was moving. Could have been a 507 with no Moterm work today? Did not see the lead or majority of the train. Not even sure if it was long lolDavid Lang wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2024 11:37 amHello.

I called them in, but they were reported as mere "riders" and will have to ride all the way to Shaftsburg where authorities will investigate.

He stopped at Opdyke Road, to flag it I presume. They seemed to be having problems with the gates there yesterday afternoon though Amtrak 351 seemed to fly by here earlier this morning, as did SB 515. Odd to have a train of this type in the morning these last few years.

Re: CN Train Location Updates Sept 2024
I think CN is letting the tracks cool off after M383 passed Mount Clemens depot awhile ago. CN/CN/CN/CN/CN (3x2x0), 12,000' and heavy, heavy, heavy. Not sure if they are dumping some of that at East Yard, but it's a monstrosity...
