No… I would assume boxcars and they have not yet started receiving cars.Andy24 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 01, 2024 10:24 amDid your conversation mentioned what type of cars that Coastal Containers is getting ?
Re: Future of the Plymouth Sub/Grand Rapids Sub
Should be seeing product arrive in boxcars similar to PCA in Grandville. Likely bulk rolls of card stock.

CPKC buys CSX Plymouth Sub
My buddy just texted me telling me CPKC recently bought the CSX Plymouth Sub. I was wondering why and he said that NS dosent want the extra traffic on the Chicago Line so CPKC bought the Plymouth Sub so they could reroute there trains off the Detroit District also. Can anyone tell me if this is true.

should we also tell you the truth about santa?
for future reference, such transactions must be filed with the stb, which you can search.

Re: CPKC buys CSX Plymouth Sub
Wait, so you posted an unsubstantiated claim as fact in a post, and then at the end of the same post you asked if it was true?
Second and third-hand information has a funny habit of being unreliable.

Re: CPKC buys CSX Plymouth Sub
Take a moment to yourself and have a rational thought. Do you REALLY think if this happened your "buddy" would be the first one telling you, instead of seeing that info posted here first by those in the know?NickThatRailfan wrote: ↑Thu Feb 08, 2024 8:59 pmI was just asking a question, yall dont gotta be so rude
Come on, don't be so naive.
