09:33 - EB passing MP 225, lined all the way to E Durand as of writing this post. I did not see the power but it sounded like an M-2 leader, and had manifest traffic.
10:12 - At Bancroft, now lined to W Flint.
12:57 - M302 thru MP 225 on M2. 3262 and 3294 leading, no DPU on this M302, nor on the M302s from the last few days.

Re: CN Train Location Updates Sept 2024
OH MAN! This is cool Manistique. Are the "Charter Cars" going to be taken to storage? Are these ones that were spotted by JT Railfan going south in Wyandotte Friday Sept. 13th? Why did they head south and now south again six days later? Where do they store them? Did the AMTK "Wolverine" tack these on for a few days? I did not see any posts about that. How could we get earlier "Heads Ups" before these movements happen? I would love to catch this!!!!Manistique wrote: ↑Thu Sep 19, 2024 1:01 pmA passenger special with IC 9636 and those two Charter Cars brought in by 352 last night left Pontiac SB crossing Woodward at 11:50 am.

There’s been a NB lined up on M2 through Royal Oak for the last 45 minutes. Betting it’s 513 but they never take this long to come back north after getting their light to go home.

23:02 - M394 thru MP 225 on M2. All four units have non-turbo exhausts, but the first two have three radiator fans. Evidently not GP40s, anyone have any information on that?LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Thu Sep 19, 2024 10:58 pmCN 4950-3 are newly purchased GP-38s from HLCX/Helm Leasing.

Re: CN Train Location Updates Sept 2024
Man, I totally missed train o998 as it headed north across 13 Mile, Roseville around 3:15 p.m., Friday Sept 20! How come there were no "Updates" on this train? I heard a horn, then rode my bike to see what it was (from new house in Fraser) and it was gone! GEEZ!!!! I knew exactly what it was! Will this train come back?Robertrains wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2024 4:37 pmDo we know where train 998 will head next? Will it traverse the Mount Clemens Subdivision? I would like to catch this!!!!
