12:00 - R934 with CN 5456 is working in Snow Yard. Looks to be a good sized cut of cars for the JAIL today. Maybe MiddleMI should go watch from the MLK bridge!

12:33 - R934 went east to the JAIL interchange with 18 cars including 8-10 4-bay plastics covered hoppers with NCIX reporting marks along with some other assorted cars.

JAIL had left them a boxcar and 3 tank cars on Friday and today with 822 leading and 1751 on the rear, they brought one loaded scrap gondola from Padnos.

Final tally: CN will grab five cars and JAIL will take 18.
