Here is what is going on CN put out a GBO after the Blue Water train hit the car.Which states that Amtrak has to be prepared to stop and flag all Grade crossings BUT FREIGHT TRANS DON"T HAVE TO.this is delaying the Blue Water by an hour or more this also affects the DET to CHI Trains around BTL there getting delayed to by this GBO.
