Having shot the southbound at Siloam, I turned my attention and car northbound, hoping to catch up to the oil train. I did, but not til Mt Olive Rd between the north end of Dorsey siding and Gravette. So here it is-CP 8561 north. Wait, what was the engine number leading the coal train?? BNSF 8561. If only Id gotten away from the house five minutes faster, I could have shot a meet between two trains with the same engine number, albeit different roads. What a hoot that would have been!!

A CP train crosses M-52 in Madison Center, south of Adrian.
D&H 510 is about to back onto the train at the south end of East Bingahmton Yard. A leaking air hose would delay tham past the point where I could get shots, which is just my luck as a brand new green EMP container was on it!
