Re: Great Lakes Central Updates January 2016

Left Cadillac for Clare at 0900.

Returned at 1445. Caught a few covered hoppers and a long string of tie loads. At least 20.

Re: Great Lakes Central Updates January 2016

Not sure what they were up to today. Heard them move from the engine house to Selma Yard a bit after noon. Headed back about an hour later. I thought they went north since I didn't hear them all morning.
