Blue Water 364 Using Wye at Durand, MI (2/27/23)

[chadamfleetrailfan]

I just noticed from watching 364 come through on RailStream that it was using the wye at Durand instead of going through straight to the platform. I'm assuming that there's trackwork up ahead of the station at Durand? I'm not used to seeing it use the wye to bypass the station.



15 minutes later, it used the wye to make the front-facing power headed back towards the west:



And then headed back west (what you are seeing below is the end power/charger)...



According to TransitDocs and the Amtrak tracker, 364 is still bound for Flint.

Out of curiosity, do any of Michigan Amtrak railfans here know what is happening? I haven't seen anything on Twitter's Amtrak Alerts about updates on 364 tonight (at this moment).

Neat photos. I think I like the middle one a little better than the two with the red lights. Still, pretty good photos of those trains.

Lotta work going on in Michigan but I’m fairly ignorant of what’s being done. The Wolverines are going to operate on a reduced schedule not sure when that starts.
