Around 17:30, ONTN was in Alma picking up the second half of the CSX grain train they got the other day. It was for the two Star of the West elevators in Shepherd and Rosebush
Re: Great Lakes Central Updates January 2024
Thank you LRF for the details, maybe a Saturday run down to osmer then?? GF’s sister lives in shepherd and usually lets us know when it’s up that way but we haven’t herd anything from her. As of 20:55 still no north train past me…..taking longer then usual(2-2.5hrs from me to osmer and back)LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 8:23 pmAround 17:30, ONTN was in Alma picking up the second half of the CSX grain train they got the other day.

Re: Great Lakes Central Updates January 2024
headed to Oakley - 385 most likely will stay with the train until it's loaded.
12:45 - 391/393/383/382 NB with mixed manifest - ZFS cars on the head end with more for Biewer and McBain on the rear.

382/383/393/391 SB into Owosso light power after spotting that second grain train in Middleton last night at 03:45 AM
Online right now GLC has:
Grain train at Anderson's - Oakley (NS - AARR)
Grain train at MAC - Middleton (CSX - AARR)
Incoming:
Osmer packed with two tracks full of cars (80+ ??)
CSX/AP: No eyes on it
Durand: unknown
08:35 - 393/382/382 NB light power, presumably to Oakley to pull that NS grain train
