A local B26 just went into Porter Yard to do a pick up, now leaving westbound with an Approach indication at CP 482 westbound on Porter Remote. Will go up to track 2 at 483, then head east to go onto the Amtrak Michigan Line.

Anyone know the symbol, origin and destination of the NS grain train that was eastbound into Oakwood Yard around 10pm on June 24? All NS covered hoppers, some looking brand new, and looking to be loaded. Missed the power, unfortunately.
