Photo of BNSF/NS lead autorack below. On a warm and muggy day, I took a ride up to the Amtrak station that is parallel to the CN Flint Subdivision that runs west then turns into the South Bend Subdivision at Battle Creek, or east into Sarnia, ON, Canada.  Down the Flint Sub near Tappan, Michigan is were the Mt. Clemens Subdivision connects to the Flint Sub or splits away from it heading southwest, or east into Sarnia, ON, Canada. 

We'll see CN's maintenance vehicles arrive and see off in the distance CN assembling an intermodal train. Note towards the end of the train, on the left hand side of your screen, a rare waiting BNSF/NS Autorack arrives off of the Flint Subdivision and then is waiting for CN to pass by. Also, not shown on camera were at least 3 other railfans that had came to the station but however left after not seeing a train come for about 30 minutes while I was there for at least an hour and a half.
