Is there a lot wrong with 397? I don’t know much about it but I think they couldn’t fix it after the accident at Walton Was this the one that was hit by the train car up north? That's what likely occurred. Nobody's too sure what happened, since nobody ever got a good look at it. Odd that they're sc...

I'm getting secondhand reports on the train, all I got was that there were two cars behind the engines with "stuff in them". It's my Grandmother giving me the reports, so all I'm sure of is that there's 2 engines (398 and 399) and 2 cars with "stuff".

2 loaded cars, likely headed to beacon.

TC run.
Through Manton at 9:42
Through Kingsley’s thereabouts at 10:20
398 and 399.

Through Kingsley’s thereabouts at 22:44. 398 and 399. They went to Beacon.

398 and 393 are heading north, through Manton at 10:03. 398 is leading.

For real this time, there’s a TC Run. I saw the tops of the engines, I’m on a hill so I didn’t get unit numbers. Maybe this afternoon I can catch them.

They are running to Traverse City today.

Erps.

Not sure if they made a run last night or not, I fell asleep really early. When I head to town later I'll look.

Hi-Rail was spotted in TC earlier this afternoon, anticipating a run late this evening. I'm on standby for when it gets close to town.

They made a TC run tonight. 385 and 383.

Per a family member, Through Manton at 20:00.

Heard them at Sparling Road's gated crossing. Train horns are creepy at night.

Ran to Traverse City this afternoon. Should be on their way back to Cadillac now. Thats 2 trips to TC this week... Someone mentioned that there was a load of empties at Beacon, maybe they came to pick those up. I noticed some fresh tracks when I headed to work earlier, just wrote it off as MOW stuff.

Track inspector nb at the ithaca bean plant 0922

Every time I read "The Ithaca Bean Plant" in here, I always chuckle. It's one of the highlights of my day.

Through Kingsley at 17:45. 329 leading.

They went North to TC today. Through Kingsley at about 12:00 today.

Two GLC hi railers in TC. Maybe a night run tonight or day tomorrow? 2 loads ready at Beacon and an empty at Amerhart. Not sure if any cars in Cadillac for TC....
