I'm sure someone wishes they knew the empty centerbeams from Traverse City would be coming down at the same time Biewer needed a pair for loading

The brownish-red covered hoppers look like fertilizer for McBain.

Here's this afternoon's train.

AANscaleRunner,
As usual, thanks again for the vid

GLC 392, GLC 398 light power south through mount pleasant as I type this (1:31). I missed the NB consist, but heard horns around 10:50am

Didn't hear them at all in Cadillac today. Assuming they headed north before 0845 when I got out on the street.

Northbound out of Cadillac at 0910.

GLC S.B unit grain train, OS Durand, MI @ 1600. Two GP35's and two GP38's.

Left Cadillac for Clare at 1030. Caught 8 tie loads, 9 tanks, 2 covered hoppers and 1 tank.

397 and 399 returned at 1500 with 1 wood chip hopper, 2 loaded centerbeams, 4 wood chip hoppers and 8-two bay hoppers.

Most of the 2 bays had what looked like ICIX reporting marks.

Keep an eye on these. They might be heading to the cement terminal in Elmira.

Moved from Selma Yard to North Yard around 0930. Haven't heard them since, assuming the are north of Cadillac somewhere.

Maybe to Elmira with the 2-bay covered hoppers

Maybe to Traverse City without the 2-bay covered hoppers /

Ok, well they were up here in TC today to pick up an empty centerbeam.
Here they are on Parsons Rd. headed for the train station and then South.

A SB GLC is in the yard in Durand right now (2:15pm).

If those are for Elmira I have a hunch KC will take pictures
