Add to that manifest list trains 380 (Port Huron - Detroit) and 381 (Detroit - Port Huron). These were some of the rare anomalies on the GTW as the even number ran west and the odd ran east. This pair ran until a bit beyond 1994 when all of the 380 series trains were moved to the Mount Clemens subdi...

Huge 40 car L515 today in Mount Clemens for work. Many DCON loaded scrap gons, tanks, covered hoppers, loaded centerbeams and boxes for GLR and Chrysler.

It's 2023 and imbecilic reporting is fairly common. I probably would have substituted "creeping" for "barreling", myself, but intelligent wordsmithing in the media is practically dead. Blaming the railroad here is tantamount to blaming an airplane crash on the ground...
