Interesting.. I haven't seen a car spotted at L&W Supply in months when I've been in that area. Haven't seen any of the product that is dropped off from these cars in their back staging area either. Good news if they are continuing to receive loads.
Just heard their horn at 4:12pm.
Checked at 9pm and two loaded cars were spotted, TTZX 861949 and TTZX 863765.

Yeah they apparently had a seasonal uptick in traffic late last year. Last time they got a carload was in February. It comes and goes in waves.

GRE working the yard at Ann St, just requested 6 eastbound signals across Fuller from CSX. Should be heading east pretty soon.

GRE currently working Precision Poly. Sounds like they will be taking their train to Ada and leaving it in the siding while they head back to Grand Rapids for more cars. Should be a sizable train into Lowell today.

GRE currently grabbing 15 more Kings out of 2 track at Ann St and will be heading east again shortly.

GRE is parked south of Lowell, probably for the night, pointed west with a long line of most likely empties. 2 hoppers parked along the mainline by the AMWAY spur in Ada.
