A rather early M394. Def not a X302. M394 can have DPUS too sometimes

What looked to be an early M301 just went west through Imlay City with 8863, 8807, 2542 leading. They'll be taking the siding in Lapeer. I'm guessing they're gonna wait for M302?
That was M399

The CN hoppers were why I thought it was another 302. Strange that 394 was behind 302 today

A 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.
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!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

07:10 IC 3129 and 2 gray passenger cars SB at Oak St, Wyandotte
"Just before 20:30 this evening NS train 302 lead engine NS 4338 passed the Elkhart camera heading for Fort Wayne, the last couple cars of this manifest were the 2 private passenger cars heading for the Indiana Northeastern/Indiana Rail Experience."

This may answer your question from the other day Robert. It was on the NS/CP thread today.
