Re: Great Lakes Central Updates - January 2023

Observation from Owosso this morning as I was passing through. 390 appeared to be hooking up to the Western Maryland painted leased unit at SRI,perhaps GLC is leasing it now? Or guess it could be returning home also.

Re: Chesaning RR Crossing

I just found it odd they added the Yeild signs this week after no signs for several year's.

Chesaning RR Crossing

I pass over the M57 GLC RR Crossing many time's a week. Noticed Friday that this exempt crossing with only cross bucks the last several year's,now has Yeild signs added. Storage moves north of Chesaning again? Or just some extra Mdot legal reasons? Just curious that's all.

Re: Great Lakes Central Updates August 2022

Looks like GLC is sitting on the Holly with A CSX unit grain train,waiting for a CN freight to clear the Diamond to continue to Owosso. Durand is tied up with both trains blocking several rail crossings this morning.

They pulled ZFS loads and other fertilizer empties on Wednesday,replaced it with a unit train off of CN Wednesday night in Middleton. MAC was trying to finish loading Friday,train was mostly P&H car's with CN hoppers mixed in. MAC brought in their outdoor corn pile over the last couple weeks.

Re: Cadillac CARHOE video

The images are fairly old,and the Coke shifted to the Wyoming feed location. Fairly certain all the coke now goes to Cadillac Castings across the tracks. East Jordan Iron Works was the other user,they opened their new mill and no longer use coke. Probably not right on all that,someone can correct me...
