Was in town this afternoon. Saw a BNSF high cube artistically decorated with a huge green H and other images, parked south of Manistique Oil. West of Manistique Oil were three BNSF boxes, all coupled. One was a 760 series, the other two were 761 series. I though it was strange that one of the two had a single door, the other had a double door. There was a yellow box on the mills main line, parked just north of the main enterence, don't know if it was coming or going. Nothing on the wye. While doing my "detective" work, the CN east bound snuck through. Did catch the head end as a BNSF unit. Got to the depot in time to catch the distributed power as BNSF 5458. Lots of coil cars and flats in one form or other. Couple of boxes and short white tankers. Engineer must have had his lead shoes on, twas really moving. No snow last night....there is hope.
